    “you don’t need to be the main character of your own life” was an EPIPHANY for me. That sums up the social media attachment in a nutshell because I’m so concerned about how not having a digital presence will affect how other people see me. I’m so glad you’re talking about the problems with social media!!
    A woman at my church said to me the other day “my generation can see how much of social media is a lie, but your generation was raised with it and it’s so much harder for you to see it.” I think she’s absolutely right.

      yup i resonated with that too! Instagram has always made me feel like I need to be cooler and better than I actually am , when the reality is that I'm kind of behind in life. I'm 27 and still live at home. It gets frustrating sometimes but I have to tell myself that my life isn't like people's online and that's fine.

      When I deleted Instagram I realized that you actually do become the main character of your own life, you do things for yourself, my confidence talking to people face to face skyrocketed and now I spend time doing things that make ME happy, with friends or alone. So I would argue that you do become the main character of your life.

      i want to do this, but society has become so reliant on smart phones its upsetting. I was at the DMV yesterday and they denied me entry unless I previously made a "reservation" to enter on my smart phone and told me to go home if I don't. Was really upsetting that they were forcing me to have/use my phone in that instance to just complete a basic task. I worry about hiccups like this if I get a flip phone.

      ​@@MoonbeamsWorldi have tried it a few times, instead of changing my habits to my phone first. It was convoluted, harder to get around life (had a music addiction & to clock in with my smartphone), but it does bring a sense of peace. It's nice to just have that silence, the silence that you currently know. It's similar to a lack of social media, makes your phone simpler (no banking, some of them are OK for group messages), but what I like most about flip phones is the predictive text and PHYSICAL buttons. It's really nice, some go for life.

    Volunteering is the unsung hero of ways to spend time. Hobbies, great. But volunteering is so underrated and honestly just overlooked, but it is SO rewarding and genuinely feels so good. If you have the time, it’s absolutely worth looking into, and you’ll be surprised what beautiful experiences come out of it.

    I had completely forgotten about the little fun classes at colleges! I took a cake decorating class when I was around 17/18 just for fun. I'm going to have to look into what they offer again.
    My current little "fill time" hobby is a sketch book. I have zero talent at that but I'd doodle little hearts or flowers, write quotes, put stickers in it, etc. Definitely not anywhere near an artist level of anything, but it's fun. It helps me especially because I have OCD and having this little book that stuff goes in without rhyme or reason helps me let go of some control.
    I'm excited for next weeks video! Loved the intro of this one. 😆

    my main problem is that I have a chronic illness that doesn't allow me to do much, I need to rest in bed most of my day. also the pain makes it difficult to engage in most things, it's miserable... I don't know what to do to fill my time, distract myself... :(

    I deleted social media back in March, never had any regrets. Every app just seems like the same thing, it’s tiring. Girl, it’s better not to have it. I know they have advantages but most of the time it’s just complete nonsense. I spent time on drawing and now focusing on my channel.

    I was wondering if you are going to keep repurchasing smartphones, or what your outlook on that is.

    • @MoonbeamsWorld
      @MoonbeamsWorld  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Wow thank you so much! Hmm honestly I think the flip phone life sounds so cool lol but I do film on my phone and love to facetime my family often so I don't imagine I'd be switching anytime soon but I think the key is to find substitutes. New apps that are beneficial or hobby oriented as opposed to just things that we can overconsume and feel gross about afterwards! I use little trivia apps to learn geography or fun facts and things like substack or reddit to help me transition and be more aware of what I'm consuming

      @MoonbeamsWorld  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      haha that sounds super tough ngl. It's hard when its used for work but also requires a lot of self control to ONLY use it for work yk? For me it's best cold turkey, so I decided to rid myself of any potential benefits traditional social media could bring to my business because of the VERY REAL non benefits it was causing me. I know its a whole different kind of hard to try to network in real life. But maybe give it a try? Find a couple people through hobbies you enjoy- meet people and get in touch with friends of friends and you'd be surprised how small the world can feel sometimes! does that sound too crazy? Honestly, I use to be a journalist but the social media factor of it all had me do a big 180 with my career path. Not for everyone, but Best of luck you you

    Hi, millennial here.
    Three things that consumed my time in my teens/20's, and I believe you touched on them well:
    1) Volunteering. I volunteered as required for a scholarship but I chose things I liked: Animal Shelter, Senior Center, and the Food Pantry at a local church. Unfortunately I wasn't able to network very easily but it was still something that gave me purpose without wasting my time.
    2) Exercise. You don't have to do a full workout, just do something that relaxes you. For me it was walking around my campus and listening to music, I could literally do this until my device died.
    3) Hobbies. Everyone has different hobbies and it's important to find out what things you like to do that make you happy and enable you to relax. Watching T.V., cooking, reading, playing games. Just make sure you are aware of how much time you're spending on these hobbies, as they could end up consuming too much of your time.
