Less social media -> More purpose

🫠 Listen, recently I have been pushing to much, and you know what, I actually am alright with it!

You might say BS! BRO GRIND HARDER PUSH TROUGH IT, my answer is nahh bro. Here's why 👇🏻

When I was sitting on the ferry traveling, i sat next to these two guys talking about their experience with discconecting from their digital life. And that got me to reflect over how impactfull that has been for me.

Now it's been two months since i re-installed my phone and quit the most addictive social media for me... Snapchat. The diffrence is night and day.

I lied to myself unknowingly. I had turned notifications off. And then repeated to myself "It's so nice not having any distractions". But I was lowkey cheking on there every 10-20 minutes, so in reality it was only partially true, because i was still constantly distracting myself because of my curioscity!

Since the disconnection event I have noticed, a lot 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, more 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘅𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, and the excess 𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 to reflect on what I'm actually doing.

So for instance I'm currently working on my subconsoius perspective of productivity, turns out my perspective wasn't serving me! And now my perspective on productivity is changing as we speak!

𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝟮 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗮𝗴𝗼

• More strict, more specific about exactly what had to be done and if not that, then not productive.

• There's either success or not success

• "busy is being productive"

𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄

• It's not always as simple as success or not success

• Feel like I know that I have to go slow sometimes but might not have fully experienced that or accepted it

• Doing What I like feels productive
