THE DARK SIDE OF SOCIAL MEDIA

Social media is awesome to enhance your business, keep in touch with your friends and make new connections

However, there is a very dark side to it

Let's take a look

THREAD (1/8)
Comparing Yourself To Others

A lot of people compare themselves to others on social media

This damages self esteem and confidence

Social media only shows the good parts of someone's life, never the bad parts

Do not fall for this trap

Never compare yourself to anyone

(2/8)
Echo Chambers

Social media has formed every type of echo chamber possible

If you're in the wrong chamber, you will suffer and feel bitter

Stay away from the news, politics, drama & hate mob echo chambers

Find echo chambers that inspire you and make you feel great

Constant Obsession

Social media has a lot of people addicted to their phones

This is dangerous as it can make you disconnected from real life

I recommend turning off notifications from social media on your phone, and only using it at certain times throughout the day

Bullying

Unfortunately, there is a lot of negativity on social media

It has now become popular to gang up on people and bully them, even if they're innocent

Never ever do this as it has real life consequences

Treat others the way you want to be treated

It's Starting To Replace Real Life Connection

People hardly meet up in person anymore & they're more scared than ever to speak to others on the phone

Social anxiety is also on the rise

Social should only be used as a supplementary form of communication, not the main form

Social Media Has Been Designed To Make You Addicted

Social media was designed to give you constant dopamine hits

The algorithm feeds you back content that you constantly engage with and enjoy

This is why it's so important to balance your time & usage on these platforms

Conclusion

Social Media does a lot of good

However it's important to be aware of the bad side so you can avoid falling into any of the traps mentioned in this thread
