A couple of days ago, I received Matt D’Avella’s email about his decision to take a break from social media. In case ya’ll don’t know who he is, Matt is a video creator and minimalist that I follow through his podcast, The Ground Up Show.
Anyway, I’ve been meaning to start my break waaaaay before I got his email, but I don’t know, there was something inside me that felt a bit scared. I’ve started with Facebook last year, and never came back. I never saw the meaning and value in it anyway. So I only retained Twitter and Instagram.
But when I got Matt’s message, I felt inspired to do so. I’m hoping to reclaim my time to do more meaningful things like reading, reflecting, and hopefully writing more.
I work in Entertainment Media and Digital Marketing, but I know there are lots of ways for me to still track and manage my social media campaigns and stay on top of the news. I’m only eliminating my personal social media use for the month. If it turns out well, I might even consider extending this sabbatical.
Here’s to hoping for the best!
