Breaking the Loop: Confronting Social Media's Hold in the Quest for Growth in 2024

SOCIAL MEDIA: "A war in our time"

"In your pocket, a 6-inch battlefield where tech giants wage war for your attention. This is not just competition, it's a deliberate siege on your essence, orchestrated by social media's invisible algorithms. Realize this digital manipulation; don't let your life be drained by the screen."

2024, its existence, I’d say inevitable. It was just a year ago that went through in a blink of a second when you made your resolutions, resolutions that are different to everyone, we are all different but at the same time something common in all is, “Growth” but was all at the end of the day were you up to the mark?

At the end of the day, the resolutions you made last year, were you able to stick to it throughout the entire year? no matter if it's spending 5 minutes on the task on the first day and building it up by the year, were you able to do that? and the truth is, No, you weren’t. The truth is, only 9 % of you guys, or 9 % of each one of your resolutions’ succeeded. It’s harsh but it's right because as of now, it’s on a loop if we don’t do something about it.

We must understand the severity of this problem, we say 2024 is going to be our year and each of ours in fact but most likely it won’t be, and the matter of the fact that we know it won't yet we do it, Why do we? Why do we continue to make such reso’s when we know nothing happening about it? The matter of fact is that it isn’t your problem, someone else is at fault and it is,

Social Media and the Devil of Attention

SOCIAL MEDIA. “The war in our time”. Dozens of multimillion-dollar companies claiming their dominance on our little 6-inch display, they have all I’m sorry to say this, “Waged War Against You”. They won't stop until they win. They won’t stop until they take every bit of your time and you as a whole completely. They won't stop until they drain you of your existence and win, sadly which they are doing right now as well. There are no accidents on their apps, it's all part of the algorithm, and sadly so are you. Everything is planned only and only for your attention.

Research has proven that we, spent 46.9 percent of our time doing the opposite of what we should be doing, folks that’s half our year done and wasted.

Think about it, how many times have you gone to check your phone for a second and then wasted hours of your time deep into the phone until your energy has been completely drained out and so has your dopamine when you don’t even mean to do it. “That is how they control you”.

An average man spends 4 hours and 12 minutes daily on their phone, which is going from 12 percent of your entire time on your phone in 2019 to 17 percent to date. If you continue down this road you will spend a third of your time staring at a SCREEN.

Do you want to be that guy, the guy that sends “the best memes” in quotes, or do you want to be that guy that nobody knows about but finishes his goals in silence whilst keeping his head down. You don’t just let yourself down you let everyone around you who trusted you down, your family, your friends who even thought about you.

So, are you going to be part of the 91 percent that failed or the 9 percent that succeeded and has control over his/her life? Take control of your life. Start from today, and at the end remember to take things slow while keeping in mind the biggest enemy is ourselves.
