12/8/2015 0 Comments No Social Media.It has been about three weeks since I used a personal social media account. I was hesitant to delete my accounts as, in the past, they had been useful tools for communicating with people I don't see often (like extended family and friends from travel).
It is true that now I can't communicate with many of the people that I have met last year. Consider, though, if I wanted to maintain the relationships, I could have asked for emails and phone numbers prior to deleting my accounts. This ultimate disadvantage is not more important to me than is abstaining from social media. What has my experience been life without Facebook and Instagram? 1. Less comparison. My life has been enormous effect when I compare myself to others.. a unfortunately inevitable effect of using social media. In doing this, I have lessened my opportunity to compare which decreases the power of a habit. 2. More time. I won't say that I have enormously more time, as I didn't use social media too frequently. I did use it at short intervals between work. Without this option, I am more effective. Time dedicated as a break is used in a more productive manner. Thats all, Marisa
