Crazy Ways Social Media is Changing You


peace infinite waters diving deep once
again crazy ways social media is
changing your mind
hot brain your whole body can I get a
hello there welcome to the wild wild
west where we give our information
freely and then complain when people
find out about us
don’t get upset now I receive a lot of
questions from people who say they have
this love and hate relationship with
social media they can’t live with it at
the same time they can’t live without it
they go through their Facebook feeds and
they feel depressed when they see
everyone smiling and how do they deal
with this I can relate because I use
social media every single day in some
way or another how do we use social
media to become the greatest version of
ourselves here’s what’s helped me along
my journey I say social media is just a
tool it is how you use it that matters I
love YouTube then tumblr then Twitter
then Facebook then Instagram in that
order because that’s how I use it in
that order but I am very aware of how
social media is affecting us on a
psychological physiological and
psychosomatic level it is amazing that
in a few seconds
you can share a video that can be
potentially seen by millions of people
and it may contain a really uplifting
experience for them to see wonderful
messages all around us we are living in
the information age information left
right and center this is the age of the
water-bearer
where the hidden comes to light there is
information but I’ve seen wisdom is rare
I had a Facebook account I deleted a few
years back because I found myself being
so nosy into other people’s business
that now I was in a state of paralysis
because analysis is paralysis I saw this
was not serving me because I always
talked of being a content creator that
is the only way to step into radical
action instead of just consuming I had
to ask myself what are you producing
because for a long time I was spending
way too much time on these social media
sites and it was not only taking my
energy it was making me feel I was
missing out what I realized is that it’s
all an illusion we show the world what
we want the world to see many of us we
have to become more honest with
ourselves that’s what I say to myself
I’m all about authentic connections and
I realize that every photo every picture
you put on social media sites like
Facebook is being stored somewhere in a
database this is what we call mind file
because we are entering transhumanism in
fact transhumanism is where we integrate
with the technology we’re already here
posthumanism
is where it’s already happened and
singularity is where machines supersede
human intellect and that’s why we’re
heading to if we’re not careful some
people say it’s inevitable it doesn’t
matter what they say it matters what
you’re doing with your life
a great positive aspect of social media
is that some people haven’t seen each
other for years
and now they are reconnected it brings
people together but at the same time
what I’m seeing more and more of is that
it’s all about stepping into the radical
action I always remind myself that this
is not real for me face-to-face
interaction is real but I see the
amazing things people are doing with
social media they’re getting a positive
message out there and that has to be
commended I have the utmost respect for
people who are working day-in day-out
reminding human beings of their infinite
potential I say being free is your
birthright however
a while back I did take a break from
social media and what I found was
something quite astonishing I realized
that I didn’t miss it that much what I
did miss was that interaction because
many of us are using social media as a
second life so a lot of what we see on
social media is parts of people they
have never shown to anyone else I say
it’s all about establishing deeper
connections on this social media I want
to know more than what’s your favorite
color when you like to eat I want to
know your deep belief systems what moves
and shakes you and I say it’s all about
forming a community that’s where social
media excels at its best but a lot of us
we have to ask ourselves why are we
using this social media is it to empower
ourselves is it to compare ourselves to
other people is it to keep our self
esteem low it’s the moment of truth I
use social media to connect with those
who remind me who I am to share with my
reflections and that’s why I am NOT in a
resistance to anyone sharing what they
feel they have to share it is just a
tool at the same time I realize how if
we are not careful
much of this social media can cause a
lot of problems many people are
projecting onto other people their
problems on social media you’re having a
lot of drama relationship breakups so
what is happening here there is such a
need for human interaction on the
physical level face to face
but many of our lifestyles are not in
alignment to them so what’s helped me
along my journey is basing my life
around what I want to do forever that is
empowering other people to become the
greatest version of themselves so I use
social media to put out pictures of them
inspiring quotes and it is doing amazing
things but the next level is to have
more gatherings I’ve done gatherings but
it’s even time to take it to the next
level many of us there’s been a lot of
research saying how many people that use
Facebook of shy I say we have to ask
ourselves are we hiding behind social
media a lot of times I’ve met people who
have been talking to online and it’s a
whole nother story I’m like is that you
really you look so different because
it’s a persona the only way to break
down this persona is to start talking
your truth and that’s why I can continue
to do what I’m doing because I’m not
here for the popularity I don’t need
that I’ve been doing this for a long
time and the only way to maintain
consistency is to have a higher vision
and if you can use social media to do
that you can thrive more so you can
start to change the fabric of the very
society we live in for the better let me
know how you use social media we are
here kicking back chillaxing infinite
waters diving deep once again stay well stay healthy peace
