What I have been doing since I left social media

Yesterday, I posted how I deleted all of my social media accounts. I even refrain from watching YouTube and endlessly read through Reddit. I want to address what I have been doing in the time away from social media and the online presence I once had.

By disconnecting from the digital clutter that was taking time away from me, I was able to check in with reality. I was able to go through my tasks, long-term action items and a list of things I would like to do if 'I had time'.

What I have been doing since I left social media

I won't write extensively here, so I will leave you with a list: 

• Start reading the books I wanted to read.
• Spend time IRL with friends and family.
• Play football and basketball with my son.
• Journal, both physical and digital.
• Meditate (daily).
• Exercise and eat healthier (1 stone lost in weight so far).
• Start my NPQ SENCO Leadership course for work (school).
• Start a Dyslexia level 2 course.
• Watch movies that were gathering dust on my Wishlist. 
• Organised my finances and started saving.
• Go to bed early, so I have more energy in the day. 
• Keep my house in order (it's the tidiest it has been in a long time).
• Learn how to use Capacities properly.
• Go places I wanted to visit, including concerts, cinema and restaurants. 

There are many more things I have done in my time away from social media, but I thought I would list the few that I know I would have found difficult to do if I was endlessly doomscrolling through life right now.

As always, thank you reading.
