Effects of Social Media- Are you wasting your precious time?

Effects of social media

Hello everyone. Social media is an amazing platform for every one of us and almost everyone uses social media and have a social media account and there is no problem in that. But there are many effects of social media in our life that we even don't know if we don't use it properly and systemically.

As most of the things, social media also have some advantages and some disadvantages as well and we are going to discuss some reality-based effects of social media on us so that we can manage our life in a particular way and control ourselves a bit for our own benefit.

1) Time and Career

See the biggest reality in this world is that if you want to be successful or do something significant in your life you needs to focus and give your time for that particular thing so that you can achieve what you want.

You need to work if you want to achieve something in your life and you definitely know that but in terms of applying this simple principle, most of us are lacking because we all have a smartphone and social media platforms in that for time pass.

Social media is a great platform to gain knowledge and learn a lot of things but the reality is that we are not using it for that purpose instead we are running away from the goals that we want to achieve in our life and it has a very negative impact on our life in the long term.

We don't know how much time we are wasting on some unnecessary things and how we are controlled by the notifications of our smartphones.

We are becoming so habitual of using social media that sometimes even after using this for a long time we keep searching something interesting that we can read and time pass.

It's the reality and we should try to take a break from our daily routine of using social media for a day and should think about how much social media you are using and what effects it has on you.

Are you motivated towards your career and working towards it and are you spending some quality time away from your mobile whether it's your hobby like sports, dancing, or learning something extra etc.

Entertainment is good but after a limit, you didn't enjoy it as much as you want. So, try to figure out for how long you should watch something and whenever you use social media try to use it as an educational purpose as well with entertainment.

It will have a very positive impact on you and will take your personality to the next level and you will be realistic about everything in your life whether it's about taking decisions or doing something.

2) Brain ability and Happiness

If we overuse social media than it has a negative impact on our brain and that will lead to a reduction in our happiness also.

When we keep going through the posts what happens is that our brain is not thinking or putting some efforts to understand anything which our brain does when we learn something or see something new.

If our brain is not active or used properly and if we make our brain habitual of too much entertainment and only grabbing the stuff from social media whether it's good or not, it makes our brain to work slow and effects our thinking and decision-making capability and also reduces our will to learn something.

And after some time, our happiness also reduces and to make it worse you will realise after some time that you haven't learned anything and that may also lead to depression and anxiety in our life.

When we learn something our brain is active and happy with living a life based on reality and we also exercise our brain to go a level high.

Overusing social media also have many other effects on ourselves like health-related, motivation related, purpose and reality related etc. But these things happen only when you are not using social media properly and gives too much importance to something that is not much Important or helpful.

3) Knowledge but no implementation

There is a huge quantity of content that is available on social media and we can learn a lot from internet but most of us are not using it as well and many of us get confused in our life that what we should do in our life.

Because of the huge availability of Content and if we don't use it wisely then we will end up confusing ourselves and wasting our lots of crucial time and we will not realise it as well and that may lead to breaking our focus from what we want to do in our life.

Use social media platforms and the available knowledge according to you and for your benefit instead of confusing yourself and wasting your crucial time.

 You can learn anything that you wants from social media but trying to learn everything at the same time will confuse you and have negative effects on you.

Conclusion:

Social media is a very good platform to use and learn from but the reality and sad thing are that most of us are not using it in that way and sometimes our brain is controlled by social media instead of our brain controlling everything and these are negative effects of social media.

We are searching for our happiness on social media and are keep scrolling the screen even if it is of no use.

What we need to do is to be smart and use the technology according to us by controlling our brain ourselves and not by these platforms and should try to explore the new things and real happiness in our life.

There is no problem in using social media or other such things but we should not become habitual of these things and should use it according to the requirements and in a system. Use it for learning also. Use this but don't keep yourself busy the whole day in these things.

Because you will not leave with any time to do something meaningful and better for your career and that will create a lot of pressure on you in future.

So, be smart, be happy and live the only life you have got in the best possible way you can and always try to control things in your life and never let other things control you and your mind. Thank you. Please comment and share if you like.
