We come across content that is made for self-improvement, some start to make changes out of necessity, but once you make change in yourself to do things differently it wakes everyone around you, in a bit in a good way, but also to challenge you.

They take inspiration from you, watch closer what you do, and do similar things which comes up in conversations which become unpleasant, as if you need to explain yourself and your change in behaviour.

That sort of reaction makes you unwilling to keep doing those changes with additional pressure from those surrounding you.

This is where it becomes necessary to have likeminded people that understand you and knowing how you put effort in your life can support your decisions and even offer a way to make further steps in your voyage.

The capacity of humans is reduced to a minimum with materialistic distractions. Because they're more of a temporary reward rather than part of living. It is part of experience and nice to have something exciting, but there's always more to feeling more accomplished. It starts with an idea, but requires committment, which also needs to be learned. 

As you venture further into your goals, it should start painting a picture of who you are and what you can accomplish for your circle of valuable individuals. Peace and joy should be the outcome of dedication.]]>

YouTube or tiktok are made to make you feel in touch with global reality, while keeping you entertained. 

While it seems harmless, we don't realize how much time it goes on just staring at your phone. I would challenge you to enable digital well-being tracking app and see how many hours you spend. 

First step is to realize the problem is there. No matter what your daily usage is, ask yourself if the time was well spent.

Be it, 3 or 7 hours on the weekend, that is way more than considerable amount of time that is dedicated to nothing but watching garbage. It's well known to the platforms how they do their job so well that it's considered manipulation of attention. They are designed to pretty much hack your mind to keep you interested and entertained. 

Maybe after seeing how much time you spend on daily basis, you will realize how much potential is wasted. 

When you look up something on YouTube that you're interested in, new tailored suggestion is already loaded for you. God forbid you open shorts or tiktok, and you find yourself on the train with endless tracks. 

Your second step is action. You are in charge of that scrolling. What can you do for yourself, to fill that time? You can try to deassociate yourself from your liked videos and comment contributions, what's the fact that it stay and is always waiting for you at any moment you pick up your phone, calls for deliberate rejection of temptation. 

When you feel like you need another hit, your hand is already in the pocket ready to open that app. 

It takes some adjusting, as soon as you find the substitute, you begin to migrate. 

Your substitutes must be good for you. The best thing to think about straight away - are your plans, and tasks at hand. If it's your free time, make sure to have a project to go to. If it's at work, it's easy - just get to work, because that's what you're there to do. 

Being aware of your pitfalls, gives you the power to influence them.

You will see that with more power you can break any chains you put yourself into. 

Whatever is keeping you entertained on those apps, just realize that they are there just for your consumption. Even reports of global events, are made to be consumed. Often even instilling fear that if you miss out, then you will be in the worse position. And for a common person it's not easy to be distinguish what can be serious, or another black hole of attention. 

Is best to practice to be aware how not to get sucked in, value your attention.]]>
