Because we see everyone else's embellished realities, so our own feels dulled.
And I'm going to be talking about different things I did than in last episode about the phone taking your life back and stuff.
We're going to dive into more of the
mental side of it and the habitual side and how we are going to fix it now and the scientific evidence behind why we are so hooked and how we can fix it.
But it's so true.
Our brain has become so accustomed to the short-term gratification.
It's become so accustomed to instant information.
It's become so accustomed to comparison and jealousy and all these negative feelings that
are now deeply embedded into our veins and why it feels so chaotic why it feels so noisy is because we are literally opening a bunch of tabs in our brain when you have too many tabs open on your computer what happens
it starts working slower.
It gets nearly broken because a computer is not meant to have thousands and thousands of tabs and information going at once.
No matter how strong you think your computer is, the truth is if you're clicking a bunch of tabs open instant, second after second, it's going to slow down.
What do you think is happening in your brain?
The fact that we can jump from task to task
from app to app, from profile to profile, from post to post.
You're opening all these tabs.
You're clicking them open in your brain.
And the thing is, we are never shutting them because social media is designed to be never ending.
So you will never feel satisfied.
No task on your phone will ever feel completed because there is no finish line.
