@selenagomez: Instagram became so consuming to me. It’s what I woke up to & went to sleep to. I was an addict & it felt like I was seeing things I didn’t want to see, like it was putting things in my head that I didn’t want to care about. I always end up feeling like s***

Youngsters know how to use #socialmedia quickly & effectively
When most convert their focus from randomness meaningless posts to something meaningful, attractive, appealing in combination with their skills & strategy...
Social media may enhance their lives instead

If #InternetShutDown lasts for days, many people will undoubtedly rediscover amazing (offline )opportunities for their lives and redefine the value of time, energy and connection.
Let this be a reality check how crazy depended we seem to be on many of Facebook’s services.
8 years ago I was brainstorming every day about what to post on #Facebook.
What could I post that was interesting?
"If I didn't post about my life then it wasn't officially happening"
Nowadays I'm laughing & think: why did others have to validate my existence?!?
#screentime
Counter triggers remind us to be mindful when we go for our phone.
A trigger you can introduce is using an effective wallpaper.
You can use:
Affirmations
Quotes
Task list
List of routines
Photo of a loved one
Photo of a goal (car, city, plane)

Becoming more intentional & productive with my time meant I became clearer when I was wasting it.
Posting every day to please my ex so her friends think we are happy became a shallow activity.
I refused to continue, which meant the end of the relationship
#socialmediaaddiction
Posting on my ex's Facebook wall to please her continued for months.
Till I started to learn how to make a website & use Facebook's fanpage for promotion purposes.
Suddenly there was less time to waste on pleasing her with daily random romantic posts.
#socialmediaaddiction
My ex would complain if there was no post on her Facebook wall every day.
For a while I just forced myself to post some Celine Dion video or romantic quote.
Till I realized it was just ridiculous.
Proving other how "happy" we were became way too tiring.
#socialmediaaddiction
#Socialmedia was a huge reason for the breakup between my ex and me 8 years ago.
There was too much pressure to constantly post on her Facebook profile.
She would feel ashamed if there was no post, like, or comment because of what others may be thinking.

Help your kids build self-worth from the start.
Praise them, listen to your kids when they tell you little things now so they’ll tell you big things later.
Don't take photos of them constantly for #socialmedia, if not you teach them that validation from others is important.
Not many people read lots of books.
Nevertheless, we do read a lot nowadays.
Think about all the emails, text messages & articles we're reading on a daily basis.
That’s a lot of reading!
But does this mean we're getting good at focusing?

A survey finds phone use while driving has gotten worse in Ireland @JOEdotie writes
No surprise
The scar on my head was caused by a driver who was sending an SMS on a highway when crashing into a car in 2003
I can imagine it has gotten a lot worse since then

When people say they’re bored at home, I say get yourselves a board game.
Like this game #Trickerion by @MindclashG , a beast of game where you are a stage illusionist competing for fame & fortune.
Complex but in my top 10 best games ever.
