ABS-O-LUTELY. I used to spend every spare second creating designs and illustrations that I was crazy about and that gave me SO much joy to create. Over the years that inclination had gradually been slipping away as I devoted so much more time and energy to instagram, to where I never reached for my sketchbook at all. I thought I'd just lost the passion. I quit instagram last week (not for the first time, but absolutely for the last), and I've already started drawing and writing again, almost involuntarily. I'm being pulled like a magnet towards the blank pages whenever I have down time, and things are flowing out. This is only the beginning, the withdrawals haven't even finished. I'm so excited to see where this chapter leads, I'm so much more determined to make something of my gifts after realising I spent so long throwing them away! Can only imagine what incredible undiscovered talents are being stifled by social media addiction...

In order to regain control in your life, you must rethink your relationship to social media, rediscover the pleasures of the offline world, and reconnect with your inner self through regular periods of solitude. Try deleting social media for 7 days and replace that time with offline activities that you value. I promise it will change your life. It surely changed mine, and I’m never going back to the way it used to be...

YES THEORY VIDEO IDEAS: 1. Zero Waste Challenge 2. Hosting a Talent Show 3. Trying out one job on one day 4. “Art from scratch” = raalizing that we can find beauty in everything all around us 5. Behaving like a Tourist in your hometown and maybe even discovering new things from a new Perspective 6. Collaborations with other KZbinrs (depending on what channel they have) - Make-up: Trying Drag? - Food: Eating something that you hated as a child - Travel: Race Time! Whoever arrives to a chose destination ANYWHERE on the planet wins ;) 7. Trying to make someone (a subscriber maybe?) famous 8. Get hired as an extra for a movie/show & fuck things up 😜 not in a bad way obviously 9. TED talk? 10. Live Tinder? Similar to Jubilee’s version or as seen on the late late show 11. Behave like you are a celebrity and look what happens 12. Try to become local legends lol. (as in, do something around your neighborhood/city that people will remember for a long time and will tell tales about) 13. Fly to one subscriber who will turn 18/21 and host their birthdayparty (fyi I’ll be turning 18 in August 😌) 14. Run for President 2020 ;)

This changed my life. I've been off of social media for 3 months now, I deleted my Snapchat, Instagram, and youtube. In this time my attention span has improved, I find it easier to talk to people, and I'm less stressed all the time. I used to not be able to read books or even focus on a single task at a time. I'd scroll through Instagram while watching Netflix at the same time, now I find my self reading for hours and staying more focused on tasks when I do them. I believe this is because I'm no longer being bombarded with notifications and checking my phone hundreds of times a day. I also find my self more engaged in conversations with people now that I don't open Instagram and start scrolling every time a conversation gets awkward, I was using my cell phone as a digital pacifier and it was unhealthy. The most important change is that I feel much happier now that I'm not wasting hours of my day and what will amount to years of my life maintaining useless social connections or browsing useless content. Thank you Yes Theory for changing my life and I strongly urge anyone who feels stuck or needs a change in life to try this out. It will change your life.

Make an app that challenges people daily to perform acts of kindness or things that are out of their comfort zone.

Challenge accepted I’ll edit this comment in 30 days Today is Day 27 of the challenge. I officially failed today. I downloaded Instagram and KZbin and I don’t really know why. I don’t know why I couldn’t survive for 3 more days but I do know i want to try this challenge again. I have to say though as soon as I did delete Instagram and KZbin I felt AMAZING. It was pure happiness and last week was just absolutely fabulous in so many ways. Also when I said challenge excepted that was no spelling error I’m just kind of an idiot lol. And I really got a real laugh looking at all your responses. And I’m going to go fix my spelling error right now. I will be starting the challenge again in 3 days. The day I should’ve succeeded. Wish me luck guys :) Oh and why did all the star wars trailers have to come out when I was doing this challenge?! 😆

After seeing this video it's the straw that broke the camels back. So I dont post to social media or have them setup to ping me with each new msg. (Thats annoying) But there is still information overload because i watch a lot of videos and read a lot on Facebook. So after seeing this video.. and for 3 days now ove ditched the information overload and have yet to go back to Facebook or much of youtube. I've also been meditating several times a day listening to waves crash on the beach noises. I plan to do this 30 days+. I'm 3 days in and I already feel better. I've been stressed and anxious since my failed IT business 2.5 years ago. I'm working out more and plan to start visiting friends more starting asap. So far so good! I'll come back and post the rest of my experience here when the 30 days are up. You guys rock!

After being a complete Instagram addict for years, I deleted my account 3 months ago and it's one of the best decisions i've ever made. You sometimes feel like you're missing out on things but the benefits of not going on Instagram 24/7 (not wasting your time scrolling and looking at what other people are doing) completely compensate the feeling of missing out. I highly recommend it to anyone who does not financially depend on Instagram.

Ken Kenaki's Waifu of course it wouldn’t be easy, the most rewarding things in life are uncomfortable, but through that struggle you grow more as a person, you 💯 could pull it off, the bigger issue is that you tell yourself you can’t, so you have this belief that you would never be able to do a digital detox, you are using that story to affirm that you can’t, and because you believe it to be truth you won’t take any action in the long term, to prove myself, and everyone wrong. It’s not even abandoning social media or smartphone use, it’s simply being aware of where your time is allocated and shifting your time to more mindful, beneficial, or healthy habits🙂 and anyone can do that, it all starts with believing that what you call impossible, may actually be possible
