Today, I want to talk to you about a little experiment that I did this weekend on with social media. So off social media actually taking a break for a long weekend from social media. And so I want to talk to you a little bit about what happened. So, you know, I have felt like a lot of us have been things have been shifting and changing, like pretty rapidly, right? pretty quickly. 2019 has been really, really fun for me. And a lot of things have been up leveling and changing and how I see things are changing. And I like to be in a state of growth. So I like to be constantly noticing new things and listening to my thoughts. And one of the things that I was realizing was, well, there were two things. One is that I was just starting to notice my thoughts that I was sort of rehashing the same kind of thoughts over and over again. And they weren’t negative thoughts, but they weren’t necessarily supporting me. And then the second thing was, I noticed that when I was looking at my time, I have a list, right? So I’m a list keeper. And I have a list of all of the things that I need to do. And I was doing like the major things like the big rocks, sort of like getting this podcast out every week and doing the things I needed for my coaching clients, and those kinds of things. But then there were these little tasks that really would help me up level that I was avoiding or ignoring. And I realized that some of the tasks on my list had been there, like for months. And so I started to think like I’m busy all day, right? Like I am, I’m busy all day, but what’s happening. And so I really started to take a look at my day. And I realized some pretty fundamental things that needed to shift. Now, I am a fan of social media. So I am not saying like social media is bad, although I’m going to give you some, some background on all of that. But I use social media for my business, right? It has helped me, I love Facebook, I run some Facebook ads, so that people can find me, you know, I have done Instagram advertising just so people find the show, right? So like, I see the value in it.
