i'm sure you have your reasons for,wanting to quit instagram i'm not here,to judge but if you consider just taking,a break instead of deleting your account,altogether today i'll show you how to,take a break from posting by disabling,your instagram account just temporarily,or if that's not enough how to delete,your gram for good for the purposes of,this demonstration i created a throwaway,account called darkerparker.delete,but don't bother trying to look for it,because by the time we're done today,that account will no longer exist though,my main is still out there if you care,to take a look you should also look up,cnet's instagram page before you delete,your account completely we'd love to,have you subscribe if you decide to,stick around after all but if that's not,enough to entice you to keep your,account active let's get started with,some ways to shut it down just because,you're done with your instagram account,don't throw out the baby with the,bathwater i strongly suggest you,download your photos videos and other,data before moving on with your life you,can request a data download from either,a web browser or from the app itself in,the app tap this icon in the upper right,corner,select settings,then security,toward the bottom you'll see download,data,enter an email address or keep the one,that shows up,and tap the request download button,enter the password for your account tap,next,and you'll get confirmation that your,download has been requested,to make that same request in your,browser go to your profile click the,edit profile button,and select privacy and security,scroll down to the data download section,and click request download,from there enter your email address and,choose the format for the download you,prefer i'd suggest selecting html for,easier viewing later though if you,prefer json be my guest,click next,enter your password and click the,request download button,regardless of which method you choose it,may take up to 48 hours to get the email,with the link to download your data when,you get it download and extract the zip,file,you'll be able to find your posted,photos and videos in the media folder,organized by date,this may also be an eye opening look,into all the other data stored in your,instagram account,you can take a peek at your search,history,a list of all your followers and people,you're following,and all sorts of other records of your,dealings on instagram i just created,this account this week so there's no,data in a lot of these folders but i am,intrigued by these secret conversations,and secret group stocks,i'll have to come back to that another,time now that i have a backup of my,whole account i'm ready to disable,instagram at least for the time being,to disable but not delete your instagram,account i recommend going to your,profile page in a web browser on your,computer or on your phone you can get to,the disable page from the help section,in the app but it's just going to kick,you out to a browser anyway so you might,as well start there click the edit,profile button,and click the temporarily disable my,account link,as the page explains disabling the,account means your account will be,hidden until you reactivate it by,logging back in,you have to provide a reason why you,want to do this even if you just choose,something else no further elaboration is,required,enter your account password click the,disable account button,tap yes to confirm you really want to do,this,and that's it your account is no longer,accessible to the outside world or to,you either unless you choose to log back,in again,you can always reactivate your account,by logging back into it from the webpage,or in the app though if you had a good,reason to disable it in the first place,maybe take some time to enjoy the,freedom before you dive back in,if you've decided to walk away from,instagram for good or at least shut down,one of your many usernames here's how to,delete your instagram account point your,browser either on your computer or on,your phone to instagram.com,accounts slash remove slash request,slash permanent again you can get there,from the help section in the app but,you're just going to end up in a browser,anyway so let's cut out a few steps next,select the reason why you want to delete,your account depending on your choice,the site offers suggestions for solving,your problem without actually deleting,your account,whatever you choose if you still want to,continue enter your password and click,the delete button with your username on,it you'll get one more chance to back,out or confirm your choice and you'll,get a confirmation that your account,will be deleted,a month from now so if you do nothing,your account will be wiped clean on the,date displayed but if you change your,mind between now and then you can still,enter your username and password,click on keep your account and,everything goes back to normal,i'm guessing this feature was added for,people that rage quit instagram for some,reason think better o

Neuroscientist: "DELETE Your Social Media NOW!" - Here's Why!
Neuroscientist: "DELETE Your Social Media NOW!" - Here's Why!
let's talk about dopamine most people,have heard of dopamine and we hear all,the time now about dopamine hits but,actually,there's no such thing as a dopamine hit,and actually the way that your body uses,dopamine is,to have a baseline level of dopamine,meaning an amount of dopamine that's,circulating in your brain and body all,the time,and that turns out to be important for,how you feel generally whether or not,you're in a good mood motivated etc,and you also can experience peaks in,dopamine above baseline,simple way to,envision dopamine hits is every time you,do something you like eat a piece of,chocolate dopamine hit you look at your,instagram dopamine hit you see someone,you like dopamine hit you know all these,things described as dopamine hits,neglect the fact that if you scroll,social media and you see something you,really like,dopamine hit sure there's an increase in,dopamine but then you get to something,else,and you know,not that interesting however had you,arrived at that second thing first you,might think that it was really,interesting,if you had arrived to that second,instagram post three days later or four,days later you might find it extremely,interesting again,how much dopamine you experience from,something depends on your baseline level,of dopamine when you arrive there,and your previous dopamine peaks,okay that's super important to,understand and it's completely neglected,by the general language of dopamine hits,this is why when you repeatedly engage,in something that you enjoy,your threshold for enjoyment goes up and,up and up so i want to talk about that,process and i want to explain how that,process works because if you understand,that process and you understand some of,these schedules and kinetics as we call,them around dopamine you will be in a,terrific position to use any dopamine,enhancing tools that you decide to use,you'll be in an excellent position to,modulate and control your own dopamine,release for optimal motivation and drive,so what sorts of activities what sorts,of things increase dopamine,and how much do they increase dopamine,well let's take a look at some typical,things that people do out there,or ingest out there that are known to,increase dopamine,so let's recall that you have a baseline,level of dopamine and that everybody,does,your level of dopamine,has everything to do with those genetics,but also with what you've experienced in,the previous days and the previous,months and so on when you do or ingest,certain things your levels of dopamine,will rise above baseline,transiently and depending on what you do,or ingest it will rise either more or,less,and it will be very brief or it'll last,a long time so let's take a look at some,of the typical things that people,take and do and eat,some are good for us some are not good,for us,and let's ask how much dopamine is,increased above baseline,chocolate,they didn't look at milk versus dark,chocolate but chocolate will increase,your baseline level of dopamine 1.5,times,okay so it's a pretty substantial,increase in dopamine it's transient it,goes away,after a few minutes or even a few,seconds,i'll explain what determines the,duration in a minute,but 1.5 times for chocolate,sex,both the pursuit of sex and the act of,sex,increases dopamine,two times so it's a doubling above,baseline,now of course there's going to be,variation there but that's the average,increase in baseline dopamine,caused by sex,nicotine,in particular nicotine that is smoked,like cigarettes and so forth,increases dopamine two and a half times,above baseline so there's a peak that,goes up above baseline two and a half,times higher,it is very short-lived,anyone who's ever been a chain smoker or,observed a chain smoker understands that,the increase in dopamine from nicotine,is very short-lived,cocaine will increase the level of,dopamine in the bloodstream two and a,half times above baseline,and amphetamine,another drug that increases dopamine,will increase,the amount of dopamine in the,bloodstream 10 times above baseline,a tremendous increase in dopamine,exercise,now exercise will have a different,impact on the levels of dopamine,depending on how much somebody,subjectively enjoys that exercise,so if you're somebody who loves running,chances are it's going to increase,your levels of dopamine,two times above your baseline,not unlike sex,people who dislike exercise will achieve,less dopamine increase or no increase in,dopamine from exercise and if you like,other forms of exercise like yoga or,weight lifting or swimming or what have,you again it's going to vary by your,subjective experience of whether or not,you enjoy,that activity,all right so for instance the pen that,i'm holding right now it's one of these,pilot v5s i love these pilot v5s they,don't sponsor the pockets i just happen,to like them i like the way that they,write how they feel,if i spent enough time thinking about it,or talking about it i could probably get,a dopamine increase just talking about,this pil

Elon Musk: "DELETE Your Social Media NOW!" - Here's Why!
Elon Musk: "DELETE Your Social Media NOW!" - Here's Why!
but one of the issues with social media,it's been pointed out by many people is,that,i think maybe particularly instagram um,people look like they have a much better,life,than,they really do right so by design yeah,people are posting pictures of when,they're really happy,they're modifying those pictures to be,better looking,um even if they're not modifying the,pictures they're at least selecting the,pictures for the best lighting the best,angle,um so,people basically seem,uh they're way better looking than they,basically really are right um,and they're,way happier seeming than they really are,so if you look at everyone on instagram,you might think man,they're all these happy beautiful people,and,i'm not that good looking and i'm not,happy so i'ma suck,you know and that's gonna,make feel sad,so when in fact,those people you think are super happy,actually not that happy some of them are,really depressed they're very sad,some of the happiest seeming people,actually some of the saddest people in,reality um,and and and nobody looks good all the,time doesn't matter who you are,uh so i think i think things like that,can make people quite sad,just by comparison because you sort of,you people,people generally think of themselves,relative to,to others it's it's a we are constantly,re-re-baselining our expectations,and you can see this say if you watch,some show like naked and afraid or,you know if you just go and try living,in the woods by yourself for a while and,you're like,the learned civilization is quite great,it has a lot it's a lot of it's people,want to come back civilization pretty,fast on naked and afraid,i i'm not normally an advocate of,regulation and oversight i mean i think,once you generally you're on the side of,minimizing those things,but this is a case where you have a very,serious danger to the public and,therefore there needs to be a public,body that,has insight and then oversight on to,confirm that everyone is,developing ai safely,like this is extremely important i think,danger of ai is much greater than the,the danger of nuclear warheads by,unlocked and nobody would suggest that,we allow,anyone to just build nuclear warheads if,they want,that would be insane and mark my words,ai is far more dangerous than nukes,far so why do we have no regulatory,oversight this is insane i'm not really,all that worried about the short-term,stuff the things that are um,like narrow ai is not a species level,risk,it will result in dislocation uh in lost,jobs and,you know that,sort of better weaponry and that kind of,thing but it is not a fundamental,species level risk uh whereas uh digital,super intelligence is so,it's really all about laying the,groundwork to make sure that if if,humanity collectively decides that,creating digital super intelligence is,the right move,then,we should do so very very carefully,very very carefully,this is the most important thing that we,could possibly do

Instagram banned me for this video
Instagram banned me for this video
you know what i realized today,i'm not good enough,i'm not strong enough and i'm not i,don't have enough willpower,to withhold,the pulls of like modern technology of,social,media i was going for a nap today like,what i do is a nap meditation where for,20 minutes instead of meditating like,sitting up halfway through the day i'll,kind of do it whilst lying down and the,idea is that if you do this if you fall,asleep then good you've needed to sleep,anyway and it's like a nice habit that,i've gotten into it's called nap,meditation it's just something you can,try if you want,i'm about to go do it,and before i know it i'm on instagram,there's someone in particular i wanted,to message,i won't i'll tell you the truth there's,a girl in my dm so i wanted to reply,back to,so i reply back to that message,end up like clicking on her profile,seeing like her most recent post or,whatever it was her story and then ended,up clicking on suggested then you see,like wait this person in the suggested,way i know that person do they follow me,oh my god it says follow back and then,you click on another picture and another,picture and you scroll down and then,you scroll down your home page which is,the page which shows okay the people,that you follow but then after a while,even if you don't follow that many,people i think i follow like 300. you,run out of new posts to see,instead of it just stopping there and,showing up you know you're you've run,out it does show that,but then what does it do,it just loads more,content for you to see just this ,death scroll,i wasted an hour of my time,you know i ended up bro do you draw the,type of content that i ended up watching,do you know how weird this is,the content that i ended up spending,almost an hour watching was an instagram,page which is made for techno fans,like it was literally like reels which,was about like techno music and like edm,like i don't even like that kind of,music and i spent an hour watching these, reels,and this seems so insignificant doesn't,it oh yeah yeah,but this is happening like every single,day,and i swear i i am sure that i am on the,like the lower end of the spectrum of,people who use social media,it's somewhat like my entire brand is,revolting against modern addictions that,this is what jeffrey would do,it didn't hit me that much like it was,enough to frustrate me so imagine an,hour goes by i was supposed to just have,a 20 minute nap and get back to work an,hour goes by,it's in my mind okay i need to stop you,know click off and everything but it's,almost like,it's almost like i'm having a,conversation with myself which is kind,of i can hear the voice in my mind,saying yeah click off you know scroll,off like just just close the app,and i just can't seem to,it's just so easy to keep scrolling,that scares me that really really scares,me,because the loss of time,it's unacceptable,time is the most valuable currency that,you will have your attention your,attention is like what you put your time,into,that's the most valuable thing that you,have especially as a man especially as a,young ambitious man your time is worth a,lot,your time is how you get done your,time is how you build your business it's,how you build your physique it's how you,learn new skills,it's how you do anything in,self-improvement it's by investing some,time into it and then we put time into,someone else's business we put you put,time into my business by watching these,videos,if,you see a positive roi from that if you,see like a 15 minute video of mine that,you watch,and you see way more of a return on,investment,in a positive you know like return then,you're like okay fair enough,but i don't think you could almost ever,say that the time we spend scrolling, like the lesser social medias like,instagram snapchat tick tock facebook,tick,tick top counters too bro i've never,even had tick tock actually i i've,downloaded the app like multiple times,for like you know small reasons or,whatever but i've never actually like,used it never had an account,instagram is the biggest one,you know,have you not wondered why i don't speak,about it that much have you not wondered,why i haven't spoke about dopamine,detoxing that often,recently,for my own selfish,gain i've i've noticed inside of me,a resistance to talking about things,that would get you to use social media,in particularly instagram less,because that would mean less instagram,followers for me,and the validation that my instagram,page gets me is,is very addictive very addictive,when i exchange instagrams with someone,and i see,them look at my profile i see their face,light up and suddenly their interest in,me has tripled,i'm the same man,i'm the man i am now and i'm the man,that i was 10 seconds ago before she,looked at my instagram profile but now,she's more interested in me now this,person wants to be my friend,now he's interested now he wants to,network,but i was the same person but we we,place this value on like these ,numbers,i've read this study i thi

"Delete Your Instagram Now!" - Elon Musk
"Delete Your Instagram Now!" - Elon Musk
Elon Musk has just given an eye-opening,warning for all Instagram users to,delete their accounts that's so,outrageous of the Tesla CEO but we all,know that Elon Musk is not just someone,who blurts things out for the sake of it,he could be holding very sound reasons,for such a warning hence why should you,delete your Instagram immediately join,me today in this video where we shall,explore elon's warning to delete your IG,immediately of all the social media,sites available Instagram is the only,one that allows you to build your brand,and image through pictures and videos it,is far more effective than Twitter or,Facebook in so many respects you may,probably be an Instagram user if so you,will agree that ig's user interface is,superior and unique compared with other,social media sites this social media,site has been a means of connection for,over 2 billion users around the globe,following this massive popularity you'd,expect Elon Musk to be part of ig's,bandwagon unfortunately while the world,exalts being an IG Elon Musk is of a,total different opinion unlike popular,views Elon Musk thinks Instagram is not,helpful he in fact warns everyone to get,rid of their accounts but why according,to the world's richest man Instagram is,a total time waster come to think of it,he's got a point so many people spend,needless hours on social media and for,what just to pass time Global statistics,paint a more Vivid picture of the same,it has it that an average person spends,a minimum of 2 hours and 27 minutes on,social media even so the trends differ,widely by country and the type of social,media now what you're about to hear will,be an eye-opener out of the,approximately two and a half hours that,someone takes on social media 53 minutes,go to Instagram and that's just for the,average person well two and a half hours,are precious and can be used to do,better things but before we think about,better things that we can do with that,time let's do some quick math and see,what two and a half hours will mean in a,year according to my calculations two,and a half hours will give a q,cumulative of 912 and a half hours by,the end of the year that's a lot if that,time could be used to read a good book,or start a useful course someone would,have a better life than just eating up,time on IG it's no surprise that Elon,Musk identified time wastage as one of,the reasons for deleting Instagram from,his experience in Rising the financial,ranks wise time management was one of,the key things that make up his success,story Tesla for instance Rose from just,a typical EV manufacturing company to a,world-class automobile because musk,invested 120 hours of his time on a,weekly basis take this opportunity to,improve your time by deleting your,Instagram account musk's second reason,is pretty interesting yet science has,proven it in many ways have you ever,wondered why so many IG users are,depressed yet they have posted the,happiest photos in the world Elon Musk,has an answer for this the issue most,people have to deal with is IG,comparison many people tend to live fake,lives on Instagram since the side,encourages posting pictures and videos,of how your life is many people love to,post pics and videos when they are at,their best therefore people give the,impression that they have a perfect life,when in reality they are not happy when,people see perfect pictures of their,friends posted on social media they tend,to fall into depression as they are,fooled to think that they've lagged in,life and their friends have it all,figured out reliable statistics show,that 13 to 66 percent of Instagram users,have reported some degree of depression,moreover a higher rate of depression was,reported in users who spent a lot of,time on the platform and the rate,lowered among those who spent the least,amount of time as that is the case we,have several day-to-day instances that,these same research is bound to give the,study indicated that several individuals,relied on likes from IG to affirm their,self-image the more likes they had the,better they felt about themselves,failure to have such would lead to,self-esteem issues body image concerns,and anxiety we all have a different,outlook on life as such someone else's,perspective should not dictate Our Lives,Elon Musk urges those who would want a,new lease in life to consider starting,by deleting their Instagram accounts He,suggests that they will experience life,to the fullest and as science has shown,you can expect to have it better,otherwise Instagram is full of so much,negativity some people have probably had,their share of depression growing from,the negative comments on Instagram the,saying that what you behold changes you,is fulfilled in most people's lives as,they constantly expose themselves to,unavoidable negative comments on IG,unfortunately these comments can take a,toll on someone's life unless they cut,the exposure some celebrities learned,this fact and swiftly deleted their,Instagram accounts Meghan Markle The,Duc

Why I Deleted My Instagram Account...FOREVER
Why I Deleted My Instagram Account...FOREVER
okay,well that's done and i feel like a total,ghost now,so why did i just delete my instagram,account,so to answer that question we have to go,back to december 11,2011 when there was only about a million,instagram users,and i took my first instagram photo and,despite,my best effort to keep my followers or,to keep following only like friends and,family that i don't get to see very,often,i'm also a sports fan so i started,following teams and athletes,i liked watching the memes that started,coming out of,uh live sporting events and then before,i knew it,i'm watching the rock get up at four in,the morning to work out or,david beckham and his perfect family,become part of my daily routine,i was also portraying an unrealistic,version of myself my feet started to,look like i was always on vacation or,i was always at like these dope industry,events or had all these crazy perks for,my job when,you know in reality i hated my job life,looked good on instagram but,truth is it really wasn't,what you didn't see on my instagram are,those moments of depression,loneliness crippling insecurity,self-destructive behavior that would,hurt just the people around me,those friday nights when i only had the,energy to just eat a pizza,and binge whatever's on netflix and the,only thing checking up on you to make,sure you're still alive,is that netflix are you still watching,screen,and none of that is really instagram's,fault they're doing what they're,supposed to be doing,they're selling my data they're using my,behavior,and my interest to get me to stay on the,platform as long as possible so that i,can see more ads,but that's not a reason to delete the,app because that's pretty much the,entire internet,and i'm not doing this for productivity,concerns either because,really by deleting instagram i'm not,gonna be any more productive,i'm just gonna end up spending more time,on twitter or playing call of duty or,fifa,plain and simple i'm an addict and you,could tell me to add friction by,deleting the app but not my account so,that i'm checking it less frequently,or limiting my screen time to a,manageable level,but none of that is going to help,because at its core,instagram is playing to my addiction,it's playing to the things that i want,to see to keep me on there as long as,possible it's not trying to help me and,nor should it try to help me,manage my use of this app that's on me,my real life mood and behavior is,starting to get affected by the things,that i see on social media,good or bad and i can't guarantee that,i'm not going to fall into the trap of,trying to gain validation and gain um,security or gain self-esteem,from trying to play to this algorithm,and counting likes and counting,followers there's an insanity that i'm,tailoring,what and how i communicate something to,the world so that a machine and an,algorithm,can validate it and say that it's worthy,or not worthy of showing it to other,humans,all while running the possibility that,i'm also making somebody else feel like,because their life doesn't look as cool,as mine that's just not a game i'm,interested in playing anymore,so i'm out okay so as a youtube creator,that might have been the dumbest thing,i've ever done because in fact most of,my views,come from instagram well at least they,did before i just did that,but as a storyteller instagram just,never really worked for me,as someone who wants to communicate an,idea,and have a discussion and thoughtful,interactions around that idea,instagram is just not the place for that,and i don't really know if a place like,that actually exists,until then i'm trying to just be more,thoughtful and mindful about the time i,have and how i spend it i'm just trying,to minimize the amount of different,places that i gotta go online to do,different things to,uh upload photos here or upload a video,over there or shoot off a tweet over,here,i hate having to talk to one person,through instagram messenger and then,another person through facebook,messenger and then a text and then,whatsapp and then twitter dms like,it's just too much and i don't want to,do it anymore so there's going to be two,central places where i'm going to be,posting regularly online,one is my youtube channel which you're,watching so,you might as well subscribe to it right,now and the second is my website,will ramirez.com,or is it will dash yeah will dash,ramirez.com so that'll be a place where,i can,share more expanded stories about my,travels or,culture or art or business or whatever,really comes to mind that,just doesn't quite fit on any of the,other platforms let me know if you've,ever thought about scaling back on,social media,if so why if not why not can't wait to,hear your thoughts until next time,peace,you

WHY I DELETED INSTAGRAM 3 YEARS AGO AND HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK
WHY I DELETED INSTAGRAM 3 YEARS AGO AND HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK
hey everyone it's Carl Ebert and welcome,back to my channel today I'm going to be,sharing with you why I deleted my,Instagram three years ago and I haven't,looked back first off I wanted to start,by saying yes I did,delete my Instagram three years ago this,is not something that just tried to get,you to click on this video I have not,had Instagram for three whole years it's,so crazy to say that now but I'm going,to share with you why I deleted it how I,got to that point and what it has done,for me in my life today,alright so thinking back on when I had,Instagram and why I got to the point,where I decided I didn't want it anymore,one of the major reasons why I got rid,of it in the first place was because I,started to notice myself posting things,just to post it if that makes any sense,at all I would go do something and I get,a good picture for I take forever to,take a good picture from it and then I,take forever to edit the photo and for,ever to think of a caption to post and,all for what just took it like it and,comment on it and then we could move on,and so it doesn't really make sense to,me anymore and I was like you know what,this is not making me happy,this isn't serving any other people in,any other way it's kind of just that we,everyone does and I do it too I also was,just really sick and tired of seeing,perfection 24/7 because I know that's,not reality and so when you see,perfection all the time then it starts,to make you think oh my gosh this seems,like reality K this is what I keep,saying but how come it's not like that,when I go day-to-day throughout my like,the regular tasks I do it's just,everyone posts their best on Instagram,not everyone some people are pretty real,with it but most people post their very,best and their heightened moments and,they're happy times and it just isn't,really real and I didn't really like,that about it because I came across as,fake to me and I would see people,posting things and doing things just to,post it and I found myself doing that,too and I was tired of it because I'm,not a fake person I like to be super,real and I like when people can be real,with me,and it just didn't really align with my,goals in life and with where I wanted to,go so something that was super,eye-opening for me and another big why,of why,my Instagram in the first place was,because I thought I started to lose,myself I feel like it kind of started,conforming in a way and just kind of,doing whatever else is doing and,becoming what everyone else seemed to be,becoming on there which wasn't authentic,to me and it wasn't truly me and I was,like okay I don't want to become someone,that the world is telling me I should be,I want to become who I want to be and,who I know I can be and who I feel,inside that I should be so that was a,huge okay moment for me where I was like,Instagram is not gonna give me my,identity I'm gonna create it for myself,but I can become that person that I,really want to be and another one is,that still to this day when I go out,into public or I'm walking through the,mall or when I'm walking down the street,even I people are on their phones and,that's kind of normal these days and I I,try not to be that person I usually am,not on my phone when I'm in public,places and anyway so I noticed people,are on their phones and what are they,doing and they're on their phones the,majority of them are actually on,Instagram and I'm just mind-blown that,we can't just get away from it while,we're out walking the dog or while we're,out shopping at this store like really,is Instagram that important that we have,to be on there 24/7 missing out on these,incredible could potentially be,incredible moments or these incredible,experiences that we're having lower,trying to document everything for,Instagram I just it blew my mind that,that's how the world was and I wasn't,really okay with that I was like I want,to experience some moments and keep,those precious with myself I don't need,to share everything with the world and,everyone knows that you share everything,with me either and so so yeah when I go,outside nights people on their Instagram,I was just like okay this is not okay he,hadn't want to be that person so I also,helped aiding in the decision to get rid,of Instagram even at work I mean I'm in,a meeting at work and everyone has their,phone with them whether it's sitting on,the conference table or it's in their,lap or under the conference table or,everyone's had to have their phone with,them and actually a few weeks ago we,were in a meeting at work and one of the,guys that I work with he was on his,phone and I just picked over to see what,he could possibly do any that so,important then being present in the,meeting and he was on Instagram and I,was just amazed,I'm on,I am so glad that I don't have it and it,has no hold over me it has no control,over me because it's not even part of my,life and I'm so proud to say that,because it honestly changed my life and,so many positive and crazy ways I,couldn

A Year Without Social Media // Deleting My Instagram
A Year Without Social Media // Deleting My Instagram
back in 2019 i deleted my instagram,account for me i was just at a place in,my life where,i had to let it go i'm an all or nothing,kind of person and,in that moment i was spending so much,time on it and i was thinking through,all the things that i wanted to get done,and i just thought i haven't done,anything like what's the problem what's,the issue and i thought to myself like,i don't spend any time alone even when i,am alone i'm on my phone,i'm connecting with the the world on the,internet and so like i realized the need,for alone time in my life and for me,the avenue in which i was gonna find,more alone time was whenever i,got off my phone got away from social,media and just really started to focus,on the tasks goals and visions for my,life,when i deleted instagram i had friends,ask me like what are some of the things,that you first notice,what's something that you realize right,off the bat and like right off the bat,i felt very lonely it was like i didn't,just deactivate my account which i'd,done a few times this time i deleted the,account like i was gone it was like,you know you're not gonna be able to,recover this account delete i had over,4000 followers at the time,and as a photographer like people would,say if you're a photographer then,instagram is your business card,instagram is how you make a living and i,was just so convinced that i'd wasted so,much time on the app,instead of pursuing things beyond just,money like what is my purpose on earth,you know what kind of impact do i want,to have i had to remove myself from that,world of just,you know because you have your friend,group in life that they're going to give,you advice and help guide you but,without realizing that sometimes you,allow a much bigger group of people,to start guiding you and make you act a,certain way and as a creator create a,certain way,and so i really had to just do a 180 and,turn the opposite direction and say,i have to get away from this first,season i'm deleting the account i don't,care if it's a,business card for you know a,photographer i've got to get away from,it i've got to reset because what i've,been doing,is not working many of our interactions,online can be deceiving like we'll take,a story reply or text or a comment,and we'll make that the equivalent of a,phone call or text from a friend it,feels the same we're getting that,gratification of someone reaching out to,us,but it is really not the same so when i,first deleted my account,it was a month or two before anyone ever,asked me like,what you know did you delete your,account i can't find you on instagram,and that's just proof that if it took a,month or two for anyone to notice,that the reality is is that unless,you're in that system unless you're in,the cycle,unless you're on there posting and,sharing and liking stuff,you're irrelevant it's not that your,absence is even noticed because,the machine is moving so fast that you,have to be in it in order to be seen and,so i would say,if you deleted instagram tomorrow which,i'm not telling you to but,if you deleted instagram tomorrow who,would call you,who would text you the people that would,call you those are probably your people,the people that would reach out to you,and,and contact you anyways and like i'm not,against,having a bigger circle a bigger network,online i think it's amazing but like,when we're living for that when we're,comparing ourselves through that it can,get to a really dangerous place of like,who am i do i even know who i am do i,even know what i'm doing or am i just,posting the photos and videos that i,know are going to get the most,interaction,what i started to realize with social,media is that we're living for people,that we're never going to meet while,neglecting those that are going to be,here forever,our family our friends our closest you,know people in our life,our real life in person interactions we,oftentimes neglect those,because we're living for these online,interactions our go-to move when we have,dead space or we have a few moments,a free time is just to grab our phone,look at it scroll instagram,and so it's not that dead space is bad,it's not that silence is bad it's what,we're filling it with like we're on,we're every single time we have a moment,we're going and checking that like,you could equally pick up your phone and,check something else and be totally fine,but like,i'm not against anybody doing this i'm,not on a you know,campaign to get you to get off instagram,i just want people to see the positive,effects of maybe limiting instagram,limiting social media not that you have,to fully get rid of it like what is it,doing for you,is it progressing your life is it making,you better is it making you happier,is it fulfilling you know your needs and,wants in life and i would just say this,often times with that dead space we pick,up our phone immediately check instagram,so what i found when i first deleted,instagram was that i would still have,that dead space i would still have those,momen
