Is Social Media worth it?

It’s probably the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning and the last thing you do before you fall asleep at night. You pick up your phone, scroll through Twitter, check your notifications on Facebook, browse your Instagram feed.

It’s just become part of the routine, day in and day out. When we spend time on social media, we are putting our energy towards other people. Often, they are people we do not know, do not care about, or may even strongly dislike. But when we spend a lot of time on social media, it is all too easy to slip into the habit of wasting our energy on people who do not matter to us.

We feel pressure to add as many friends as possible on social media, but I recommend being very careful about who you add, follow, and interact with. Having thousands of “friends” might seem like a status symbol, but do you really need constant life updates from people you couldn’t care less about? We need be mindful about who we connect with and share our energy with both online and off.

Taking a break, going on a “deleting spree” through your friends list, or even quitting social media entirely might help your mindset.

Yes, social media can be fun, and it can also be extremely useful. But at the same time, it can easily be detrimental to our mental health. If you’re feeling low on energy, don’t waste it by worrying about other people’s posts and photos-hit that “log out” button and focus on yourself first.

The One Piece Of Advice That Will Change The Way You Look At Yourself

If we told you you’re doing just fine in life, would you believe? Probably not. None of us would, to be honest. Because, look at all these people around who have it all sorted, you know what they want to do in life, these people who are younger than you and are still much more successful, these people who are already buying their own cars and houses while we’re still shuttling between jobs. See the place that thought just put you in? That’s exactly where we all go wrong. That’s exactly how we jeopardize our happiness and mental peace. © Unsplash There comes a time in our lives when we feel that we’ve lost the grip, that life has slipped away and we’re lagging too far behind to ever be able to catch up. You’ve already lost the race; it seems, before even hitting your peak. Only, life isn’t supposed to be a race. You’re not supposed to be racing against other people. You didn’t come to this world to compete. So, step out, because you never really signed up for this rat race.

5 Things Nepalese Needs To Relax About

Living in Nepal isn't easy; it has never been – neither for outsides nor for its own citizens. We may seem celebratory and full of life to the world outside, but only we know how suffocatingly uptight we are in our mindset. Here are 5 things we Nepali really need to relax about! 1. Public Display Of Affection © BCCL We Nepalese want to keep everything under wraps. Most of us were brought up in a way that we feel ashamed about expressing our love to people. It is ironical how it is perfectly okay for people to hurl abuses and broadcast acts of violence in broad daylight – out on the roads, in public transport, and everywhere else, but totally unethical and uncultured to hug or kiss someone you love. 2. Inter-Caste Marriages © Google image As preachy as it may sound, we're people before we are Brahmin , Kshatriya , Vaishya, and Sudra . It takes compatibility and understanding for a marriage to work, not common religious grounds. The

"Life is never going to be the same, not the next moment, not the next month and definitely not a few years from now ." Our younger years are often wasted trying to ‘sort life out’.
