So I'm pretty new to this, and not quite, entirely sure if I know what I am doing. I'll start off short, simple and sweet.
I need to simplify my life in the area of technology, therefore I am seriously debating getting rid of one of my social media sites.
There are two reasons holding me back, so let's start with those.
1) It does help me immensely in my career having a business page and posting updates, previews of work, as well as sales, etc.
2) There are some family members I would probably not talk to as much or even see any pictures or know when something happens if it wasn't for so much social media being available at your fingertips any time/point of day.
I will continue to contemplate this for a couple more days and see what I come up with, after all my husband doesn't have ANY social media accounts, still has a smartphone and he seems rather happy. So could it be that bad? Yes I will more than likely have withdrawls(if you can call it that) of some sort, but they didn't have all this social media 12 years ago and people made it along just fine.
So why do I feel the need to HAVE to check what is going on, on the same site about 130 times a day, who knows it could be more, when I'm bored what do I do? Check social media, does that fix my boredom? Not entirely no... it occupies me for a few short minutes, why not read one of the 20 magazines I subscribed too, make a craft of some kind, interact more with the kiddos??
That's a good question... isn't it.
