I just opened my Netflix viewing history to check when did I watch The Social Dilemma. It has been 18 days. I watched it on 10th September 2020. I have been trying to limit my social media usage for quite a while now, and to be honest, I was struggling with it.
After watching The Social Dilemma, I followed a few steps and would like to share them (or better document them, because no one reads this blog).
The 15 mins value
I had made my mind that I want to quit social media. I didn’t want to delete my accounts (you know because I may need them again), so I did a little, you can call it an experiment. I opened Facebook and scrolled for 15 minutes without any break. Then I made a list of things that I found in the 15 minutes scroll that may add some value to my life OR I would learn something from it, and I found ZERO things.
