Hello everyone again! I have been slacking on giving my time to my blog for the longest time now, but I have finally decided on what I need to write about. I was struggling with my blog and the branding I wanted to have for myself and my blog. For some reason, I could never get my content right. I could never write what I thought was real or what I thought was click "worthy." However, now I've discovered that I will not write for anyone but myself. I will do it because it makes me joyous and productive, like it always has.
I have always been the type of person to watch and then do. No, not necessarily a follower, but someone that envies others. It is a disgusting lifestyle and I am sick of it. However, in this special case, I am following something that I think will make me happier and an all-around better person.
This is going to be so extremely hard for me to do. I mean, part of my college major is based on the sole idea of social marketing and branding. This break-up I am putting myself through with my phone and my laptop…it is going to be hard…and I am probably going to screw up, but I am doing this!
For a week, starting tonight at midnight, I will be deleting my social media apps. My focus will be on something that is so much more than likes on Instagram or how many views My Story on Snapchat gets. I am so done with the pettiness of social media and all of the competition it has to have the most likes on your picture. SO DONE!
I am taking this journey and I am ready to learn about everything outside of social media. Maybe I will finish the book I have been trying (not so hard) to read since June. Maybe I will make a new friend along the way since my eyes will not be trained on who's #ootd is the cutest. Maybe I will (fingers crossed) study a little harder. Maybe I will become a better me, a more confident me, and a happier me.
