Quitting Facebook
I was a facebook addict till last month. I used to check facebook every 5 mins.Many times,I voluntarily asked my friends to give likes and comments.Suddenly a big dispute between my internal monologue and me.
IM:Why are you sharing the photos in fb? Just to show case your talents?.What is the use of sharing it? Will it promote your talent or will it help you to succeed?
ME:I am just letting my friends to see my stuffs ,so that I will get a feedback to improve my skills .
IM:If you want to do so,why don’t you send them in personal?
ME:They might be busy in times and they would not reply.If I post in fb,they will see it when they have enough time.
IM:What if no one likes it?
ME:I feel perturbed
IM:What if you get more likes?
ME:I will be delighted.
IM:So?Is that what you need in your life? Just the likes? What are you going to do with it? If you are just elated in the temporary happiness,then you cannot clinch big.After all,delighting in pride is the root cause of failures.
ME:Then how could I share my posts ? How could I let my friends know what I am doing?
IM:Are they longing to see your posts? Has anybody ever told you that they missed your posts? ME:Few people have said that
IM:Just work hard in silence let your success make all the noise.
That was all the solace I could embrace to quit facebook.Since quitting fb,I have been spending my time usefully.I started participating in many real competitions,getting enough time to prepare for the competitive exams.
