  • I quit social media in order to discover the next phase in my life. It is only when we STOP listening to the noise of the world can we truly discover the signal that is there for us. I will be creating more authentic content to help this amazing community live a full and fulfilled life. Much Love!

      "Ego is an old story."
      "Ego is an self-made concept."
      Ego is also called past self, or false self.
      You dont live in present moment, because everything you think about during the day, is actually about past.
      so your mind is constantly in the past..
      tthoughts about what you should do (these thoughts are in some way attached to past.
      what celebrities did
      its about the past
      what you should buy, to fulfill other people expectations,
      its about past, your mind is constantly thinking in past.
      What you had fort breakjfest, you think in past.
      what you should buy for diner, youa re looking fora nswer sin the past.
      And people who practice mediation, live in present moment.
      they are criticised by peopl who constantly live in past.
      They are liked by people who live in present moment.

    Several times this year I’ve deactivated and activated, and repeated the same uncertainty of letting go of social media. Finally made the decision to fully let go of instagram and TikTok. I haven’t had Facebook for years.
    I shifted my focus on my education and of course still committing to my career. And living in my visions of success.
    Consistency is key for me. Fruits of the labor is what have gotten me to succeed, but also visualizing in the past has brought me to “my now,” the present. As i embrace every moment, I also embrace what my future holds.

  • @dj_bubbs-TXQ
    @dj_bubbs-TXQ Před 11 měsíci +54

    It’s been over 2 years since I left social media. I have no regrets at all.
    I got sick of people gossiping, drama, negativity & people faking their lives & friendships and sharing everything that should be kept private or craving attention with provocative pictures & selfies.
    A number of things I realised:
    1. People who added me as “Friends” didn’t really care about me. They were “So called Friends” it was just to increase their friends list.
    2. When people were going through their hardest times of anxiety, trauma and upset, I went out of my way & made an effort by helping & supporting them. But when I was going through my hardest times, including anxiety, trauma and stress. The people who I helped & supported never reached out to me to help or supported me even when I struggled. Everything has become one sided.
    3. Certain posts or videos get blown out of proportion or completely taken out of context even if it’s nothing negative.
    4. People lie about the amount of friends they REALLY have. Who in the REAL world has 100s or 1000s of friends WHO??
    5. Communication is very one sided. The same person had to make the first move to start a conversation as the other person doesn’t make an effort themselves or just can’t be bothered.
    6. People lie about their lives, they only show the positive side of theirs lives which doesn’t show the REAL truth about the person. You can’t tell and don’t see if someone is REALLY depressed, upset, isolated, lonely, feeling suicidal or what’s actually going on in their actual lives. Even if people post how they really feel, people don’t always care or not interested.
    7. It makes people fake and insecure. It’s not just school kids or teenagers in schools, colleges, universities or workplaces doing it, but grown adults as well are also being fake & insecure, especially managers.
    8. People compare themselves to others just to get loads of “Likes” & comments.
    9. Social media has increased loneliness, isolation, anxiety and depression which can be severe.
    10. Due to social media and the increase in technology, it’s causing destruction & destroying peoples lives in the sense of their is no sense of unity, community, love and nobody wants to help each other. If they see someone doing something constructive and productive and they’re doing well in a community or society, people will laugh at them in an act of ignorance, and cannot wait for them to fall down. Social media is dividing people, not bringing people together.
    11. Having a proper conversation or being real is considered not normal and people think it’s creepy. People don’t like having real conversations.
    12. It’s made people to be narcissists, entitlement, ignorant, prejudice and bullies.
    13. People can say things or make comments that are abusive, racist, sexist, ignorant, prejudice, misogynist, homophobia, xenophobia, discrimination openly online, rather than to your face.
    14. I have seen Boys & Girls take provocative, selfies / pictures just to get attention from so called friends / strangers, sometimes in a negative way, for example, woman having their boobs / chests hanging out, body image, men & women showing off muscles, six pack & more.
    15. With social media & the young generation with regards to friendships, people feel that if they add someone as friend request and they accept it, or meet someone & they click with them they automatically think that’s “friends for life” people need to realise that’s not how friendship REALLY works.
    Friendships are & should always be a 2-way street. Real friendships would make the effort to support & be there for each other through the good times, fun times, hard times, sad times, upsetting times & more. Communication & making an effort should be equal on both sides. Not the same person who always makes first contact. The other person should also make an effort too.
    We need to ALL learn the skill set of when we suffer from stress, anxiety, trauma, facing problems & more, that we should reach out to our friends, family or professionals for help & support, NOT turn to social media.
    16. Our young generation has grown up addicted. They have been addicted to mobile phones, alcohol, drugs, social media & more at a young age It’s very sad.
    We are seeing the negative impact of what social media is doing, but we are not really reacting to it.
    I never had TikTok, Twitter or Instagram. Glad I didn’t sign up to any of them. Facebook was the only social media platform I had and it was recommended to me back when I was in my teens.
    I only use CZcams as I can look at interesting things like cooking recipes and motivation videos and music videos of festivals & concerts and more fun stuff.
    I enjoy going out in nature walks, bowling listening to music and learning new hobbies and watching movies.
    Since leaving it’s been the best decision of my life. I enjoy life more, I can now enjoy doing the things I do or want to try without being judged or told what to do without being made to feel guilty.
    I feel more happier and a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
    I think if social media disappeared forever, I can guarantee people will spend REAL quality time with friends and family. People will know who their REAL friends are and that they will do things together and have a good time doing it. I also feel that people will have proper conversations and listen and engage.
    I do feel sorry for our young generation. The young generation is lost. There is so much talent and ideas in young people and they need to show that in a positive & constructive way. We can make change for the future. The young generation needs real positive role models to look up to, for them to succeed in life & beyond.

I watched one of his videos and that inspired me to change the direction of my life. I was working for someone else dream until his video changed my life. I decided to work on my dreams. Today Im 30 years old and I had my ups and down, success for me is feeling proud of your project and wanting to share it and talk about it. In any area... love life, career, spirituality. I'm the most authentic version of myself. I dont follow social media trends and I persue my music career. I used to have my own house and a lot of money but I was empity inside. Today I might have less money but I feel much happier and fullfield. Im not saying thats the truth but thats how I feel. Im glad for having at all and nothing when I was 19 years old. I already realised that was not the life I want to live. Thanks for his video.

    I’m 20 years old and the only social media I’ve ever had is CZcams. I stayed away from everything else cause I didn’t want my beliefs and views on the world to be shaped by what I would describe as the toxicity of social media. CZcams is my alternative to cable TV, it’s where I go to see some entertainment and get some news. But other than that, I’ve avoided everything else. Those who need to reach me or those that I want to stay in touch with have my phone number and are able to text and call me when they want to chat or meet up.

      Good. Now the ultimate goal would be to also quit CZcams. See, I'm an ex gambler (clean for 25 years). It's an addiction, just like social media. I've had to give up ALL forms of gambling right down to not pitching a penny; not ever buying a 50/50, and not buying a lottery ticket = NOTHING!! When it comes to social media, there is no room for ANY type of social media, and that includes CZcams. Take it from an old, but recovered, ex gambler. Hopefully, there are also 12-step programs to rid oneself of ALL social media. Good luck!!

    this video is one of the best eye opening videos I've ever watched, as someone who has struggled with ego issues and always wanting to be the best I can at everything I do in life, I realized there will always be someone better at something and learning to come to terms with the fact I am not perfect and will never be enough for myself is the best way for me to grow as a person. I always thought making progress in the world's eyes or the people around me would give me a sense of fulfillment, but I realized this mentality just leaves me constantly wanting more from myself and never being content, which means I have missed the entire point of our very limited existence.

I overthink less, compare less, and im truly free of stress and negative thoughts. Instagram, tiktok and others have done nth but fill my time with pointless videos, negative news and pictures that dont reflect reality of life. Ive kept only the main ones like snapchat, pinterest and bereal. Im only 18 but i think ive waisted enough time. Like you said, now is the time to live fully, to realize dreams and foster happiness, momento mori. Thank you so much Ea for your words of wisdom ❤

    As a Muslim, This video touches my heart. In our religion,we do believe in the afterlife and God will ask us about our lives and what did we do with it . This is so true that we have to live fully in this life and social media is just a way to communicate not a place to live. Yes, we are not here to gain fame or anything, each one of us have a purpose ,God look at our hearts and you really described life from Islam's perspective.
    Thank you so much,I wish everyone find their happiness and live fully each moment not just existing ❤

      ​As a Jew as well I think this is one of those beautiful things that speaks to every person and religion, because I think that every religion recognizes the truth of this principle. It's pretty crazy that the core of every religion is so similar and so true. Prince Ea articulated it so perfectly.
