Results of my Social Media Detox

November 8th, 2015 at 10:11 pm

I think I made it sound more dramatic than it really was - haha. I really just didn't use social media for a week, and honestly, it was fantastic. Hardly missed it, only was tempted a couple of times, and not only did I have a much more productive week, but I felt much more relaxed. Which was good - because otherwise it was a rather stressful go of things.

I think I'm going to start limiting my social media usage to just Sundays, with the exception of posting for my business. Honestly, I wish I had the money to pay someone to do social media for my business so I didn't have to worry about it. Ironic because I used to do precisely that. But I don't have time to keep up with it enough for it to be terribly useful. I need to come up with a system to improve that.

So thankful that the week is over - I worked a wedding yesterday, which is a LONG day. People think being a wedding photographer is a glamorous business. haha. In reality, it's tiring and full of pressure. Certainly high-energy and fun (with the right group), but nonetheless it leaves me spent for a few days.

Today I was happy to have the opportunity to relax a bit. Drank my morning coffee in the quiet and then we did brunch with friends, which was a lovely time. The weather has just been gorgeous for our part of the country. And fall is my favorite

    Interesting...some posts on Facebook are ridiculous.

    Social media can creep into all areas of your life without you even realising it because it's so easy to use anywhere, anytime. I was pretty much completely free of it from Wednesday morning to Friday morning, although really instead of checking it (I had no internet) I was just reading a book here and there. Sometimes it is good to just solely focus on your own life without having to listen to all of your friends thoughts and comments on their daily lives though!

    It's a bit different here because we are all kind of like-minded though, I'm always happy to read the blogs!!
