FINDING MY PURPOSE: THE SOCIAL MEDIA DETOX



I have taken a detox from social media for a few weeks now, and honestly it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I was going through a wave of emotions every single day. I spent hours scrolling on Instagram, Twitter, etc, comparing my life to others. And for what? Everyday I was seeing posts that made me unhappy and angry at where I currently was. 

It was during this social media detox that I became content with my journey and with who I am. Going cold turkey on all social media was extremely difficult, but surprisingly, I didn't miss it at all. I became more focused on my journey and my spiritual purpose; building myself up from the rubble I was in yesterday and seeing the masterpiece was proof that all that ME time was worth it. Today, I can say that I am more in tune with my perception of self. Everyday I am recognizing the woman before me in the mirror and I am excited to see what I can accomplish this year. 

So if you're feeling overwhelmed, take a look around you and see what is preventing you from reaching your destination. Is it a jealous heart, non-supportive friends, or social media? Whatever it is, remove it temporarily from your life. If you believe it needs to be removed permanently, then so be it! Do not help others or things build obstacles in your path. Do not hesitate to knock them down! 

Live this life for you! 

We were made with a unique purpose on this universe! So stop comparing yourself to others, it will only cause harm to your journey and cloud your purpose.
