a role model

😂😂 me too

I don't consider KZfaq to be the sort of social media I'm talking about-it's much "smarter" in the sense that you're applying your attention actively rather than passively.

@@samszuchan thanks man you helped me to stop scrolling today and go for a run/workout instead. Hoping to keep this up

Appreciate it!

KZfaq is a very "smart" form of social media I'm okay with.

How long are you social media free ? It's been a few months for me and I still can't focus properly on reading a book.

@@filiphlousek251 Since about 2019. I started by uninstalling Instagram, Snapchat, and everything else on my phone, but I left the accounts active until late last year (only accessed through my desktop PC, and later one of my old crappy phones that I had laying around). Last year, I decided there was no point to having them open if they're never used, and after learning about the risks relating to Open Source Intelligence in my Cybersecurity course, I decided it would be a good idea to minimize my digital public footprint by fully deleting those accounts. I did log in occasionally (once a month, if not less), during that timespan, to keep in touch with some friends, but eventually, I just started saying texting is perfectly fine, if someone wants to get in touch, that's the best way to do it short of a phone call. It did take a while to even focus on an audiobook, several months at least, if not a whole year or more, but I just took it in small bursts and I'd listen to a few minutes at a time and go up from there until I could sit down for an hour and focus on it uninterrupted. Even still, I had to and occasionally still need to skip back to re-read things when my mind wanders off topic, but it does get better with time. Keep going, and remember that small steps can add up to big results.

Thanks for the sub!

How is it going now? Did you improve and how do you feel?

Did you become more isolated after deleting socials or did you find a way to nurture your real life friendships and connections?

Real

Thanks for stopping by :)

KZfaq is not a social media bro. You can learn any high income skills.

@@pharezgabriel678it is social media. The secind you can publically interact with other people it becomes social media

​@@pharezgabriel678it is ✨

Same and I'm addicted to KZfaq 😜

Thanks for subscribing, greatly appreciated.

meh. i find a safe haven in other stuff like hobbies and whatnot. movies. games. writing songs. writing stories.

​@@variancewithinlol since when games and movies become hobbies You clown 🤡

I don't count KZfaq as "social media" in the traditional sense because it's a much more conscious platform; you don't zombie through it like the others.

I know you mate 🧉

If your friends forget about you because you stop posting on socials so much, you have to wonder if they're really your friends.

your mistakes made you who you are right now and after you fail you learn more about someting if you dont fail enough you can not be able to do what you working for. Even if you weak it does not matter because if you really want someting bad enough it doesen't matter if youre weak or stupid etc. you should forgive yourself to do most of it, you must forgive yourself to achieve the goal you dream of every night. Just want bad enough and just fail enough and don't look at other people who did it easily they can be better at that but you are most likely better than them at something different so just focus on yourself and do the best you can. I hope it is benefitial for you i'm willing to hear your good news and let me know when you do it

Experience is the best teacher. Learn from ur mistakes, move on and try to do better next time! In the end, no mortal being is perfect. Everyone has their own pace.

Thank you very much.

@@samszuchan no problem sir. You just motivated me to do more home jobs for money. I did some things at home I almost forgot after watching this video! Thank you.

U have more time to think, complain about your life or u will do more productive activities in a day just because you’re bored - that’s simple

@@SzwagierRap Productivity is for servants. I choose to enjoy my life.

@@CSGOCOMPILER if in your definition „enjoying life” is brainless scrolling socials it’s good for you. Enjoy like that. For me „enjoying life” is travelling and doing whatever i want. I need money for that and scrolling social doesn’t make me richer.

@@SzwagierRap I don't need to work for money, my ancestors made good choices in the past, so I don't need to trade my labour for money.

Stay tuned.

@@samszuchan, what do you mean?

You don't have to delete your accounts. Just delete the apps from your phone.

Yes, but KZfaq really isn't a "social media" platform in the traditional sense. It's much more "active," in that you're making intentional choices in the videos you're consuming, and there's an extremely large volume of genuinely helpful info here.
