Why You Need To Keep Your Personal Life Private | Privacy Is Power 🤐

[@ljshainevillan1523]

"The less you reveal the more people wonder"

[@nursyalsabilla9739]

1) safety 2) not everyone is your friends, people gossip and have bad intention to you 3) care less about people opinions 4) have better relationship 5) career opportunities 6) recover from setback is easier 7) better your love life Privacy is power, what people dont know, they cant ruin it.

[@jessicaselenecenteno]

Agreed.

[@Keepbe]

I have definitely made a habit of oversharing. I used to think being an open book was empowering because it meant you didn’t care about what others thought of you but I realized I was doing it as a form of validation. I have sense decided I’ll keep more things to myself. I want to kill any validation seeking behavior I have. Thank you for this!

[@galaxygato9642]

I'd been there! I realized I was so happy talking with other people because I felt validated and then felt bad in some conversations after! And I wish you the best of luck in killing the self-validating behavior!

[@lydiamusima5257]

I was addicted to validation through sharing a lot of statuses on whatsapp. I decided recently to cease sharing. Now I feel a lot less anxiety and more peace

[@nadinehackett308]

I deleted my Instagram for privacy and while I have FB I dont share anything personal there. Privacy is really power.

[@Shiasospiritual]

This is me. I don’t have IG, and I barely even share anything on FB. Privacy is important and it’s peaceful 😊

[@LevelUpYourLife]

This is such a valuable topic. It is so easy to get sucked into talking about your struggles and conflicts and problems with people but then you realize that it does nothing but fuel more of that and keep you bogged down into that type of behavior. Blessings to everyone 💠🙏 full watch

Why: 1. Private life is a happy life, it's safer 2. Not everyone is your friend 3. You get less opinions about your life choices 4. Having better relationships 5. Future career oppertunities 6. Recovering from setbacks easier in peace because nobody knows to ask you about 7. It's better for your love life How to do it: Set boundaries Think before sharing Keep your inner circle small

5 is a bit different because I usually tell established people(lawyers, doctors, entrepreneurs) about my goals and plans. They usually help with encouragement, guidance or other opportunities for growth.

[@kathrinejr.walter8411]

Yes I did ! I overshared with people things I shouldn't do or say! By that, I started feeling that I am being "less and down looked" by people whom I shared with . . I wanna work on it 1. Never share your feelings 2. Never share your private life and relationship 3. Never share your plans and things you want 4. Never share your problems or family issues with anyone

[@saragoldilox7402]

You are so right especially about this work part! Never share your personal details at work or your wilingness to change the job. Your colleagues are not your friends!

[@rachellynnie]

What about asking references in resume? Some colleague would know about this.

[@melanieh.3137]

[@roar6047]

I'm working on this a lot. I've overshared and felt I violated my own boundaries by sharing more than I was comfortable with. I don't want to be that person anymore. I feel more comfortable keeping things private and this is important to me.

[@Christine_]

These topics resonated with me so much. Even after sharing a teeny bit after 1 year of not sharing. Jealous family and friends are picking the post apart and gossiping about what they think is going on. You are spot on.

[@lovingsunshine3515]

It’s so true that privacy is power. I only have Facebook to keep in touch with my families and friends that I met through the military when we were active duty. My FB don’t even have my real name, profile photos of myself, husband, or kids, or the places I’ve worked. I’m a new employee at my kids’ school and I’m interesting and mysterious to them. They don’t know anything about me except for the things I’ve told them which is very limited. I know they’ve looked for me on FB but can’t find me 🤣 and it is so satisfying that nobody knows my personal life.

[@minismalls3096]

this is why i stick with a niche with my social media. unless you know me personally, you wouldn't know where i work, what i do, went to school, family, boyfriend, even my last name. I literally just post pics of hobbies. wanted to start a youtube channel and i think i'm going to go with the same formula. just stick with the niche and hobbies.

[@InspiredUno]

Same!!! And I love it!!!

[@diamondc1278]

[@charmaineespeut4627]

I'm watching this because I told my mother I'm no longer telling her about my private life. She got upset.

[@thameshasebro2678]

I feel like I've been sharing too much of me and not minding my business enough to stay in my lane and keep a low profile. Thanks for this reminder, I'm practicing the art of silence.

[@Queen-ConsciousYa]

Don’t say anything. Silence is best and they can’t use anything against you.

[@jmk2530]

This is an excellent talk. I so agree with you. I started being private a few years ago because I realized that oversharing wasn’t good for me. But one thing I’ve been accused of is being “secretive” or “antisocial” eg by coworkers . My being private and low key because I wanted to protect myself and I knew I couldn’t trust those people.

[@nidhisaju312]

I use to be the girl who over shared every single event of my life till Jan 2021(yup, this year) Literally nothing was private.... And got so much hurt cuz of it... After that I literally became a mysterious woman (Thanks to ur videos)😘❤️ And if anyone asks "How's ur life going?" I always reply "it's going well" and that's it!! ✌🏻😂 When something really good happens to me then "Boom" I shock everyone 🔥 Trust me... This is so satisfying 😌❤️

[@zainafyl]

I couldn’t agree with u anymore, & very key on that last part

[@sherileenlambert2784]

Best advice ever! I've been guilty of oversharing, however nothing that I've regretted. However, I've had to learn the hard way. Nothing wrong with privacy, it also helps to set boundaries. Remember people, not even colleagues are your friends.

[@tralaritralarajiju2652]

Yes!! I read in the newspaper that a criminal kidnaped a little girl because her mom published where her daughter kindergarden was. Se never found her. That made me erased every social media I had. Not because fear, I was addicted to scrolling and scrolling hours and hours.... Now I have just youtube and pinterest. Whatsapp just for my family. No more. I don't need more. I need living real life.

It's the same with relationships. I never post photos of my love life because when it's over, it's easier for me to recover than all people know. Every time you meet a friend, they always ask about it, and that's even more heartbreaking and slowing the process of moving on.

[@pearlslaceandgrace400]

This is such an important subject, Urania! In the era of social media, privacy and discretion seem to be an afterthought at best. When the subject of personal privacy comes up, I’m often reminded of a quote from Banksy - “I don't know why people are so keen to put the details of their private life in public; they forget that invisibility is a superpower.” This has always resonated with me. Wishing you a lovely week 🌸

Very solid advice. I’m in my 30’s and I’ve been more quiet about my life versus in my 20’s. I cleaned up my LinkedIn page and privated pretty much everything lol. No one knows my past job history and what I did in college. I recently deactivated my Facebook and Instagram and taking a breather because I was overwhelmed with the amount of information I was seeing a day from people. The only thing I posted is photography photos and just kept my page simple and focusing on my hobby. Being low key is the wave I’m riding on and I love it!

I concur. I've had to go back a few years and clean up my Facebook page posts and my photo album. Also I'm currently cleaning up my Instagram. I've gone to journalling so I can get out my private thoughts without letting the world know how much healing I have left to do

[@jolvika]

I love the journaling idea!

[@candy2325]

This! I cleaned up my LinkedIn page and took down all my past job history and my education off of there. On Facebook I hid all my post on old jobs and private photos.. lord. It’s crazy how much I shared in my 20’s 😨😫

Great video. I've been guilty of oversharing at work in the past. I get embarrassing flashbacks actually lol. This past year God has not silenced me but moreso kept me safe and quiet. I'm much more pensive and less likely to spilly my own beans, no matter how juicy lol. Thanks Urena.✨

[@daniiii_0347]

Last 2021, I overshared too much with my friends and even people that I just met. My life became miserable and my mental health was down. But now that I talk less to people and keeping my life away from social media, I feel much peaceful.

I've heard of SO MANY stories recently where people find out where others on the internet live! Showing up at their house, writing them letters, visiting them at work, it's so scary!

[@AkshayChandelVlogs22]

Very valuable video it's important to keep your personal and professional life away from social media you should never post your tragedy, sorrow and pain coz there are many people who enjoy gossiping about it and there is a very high chance that whatever you post on social media is also known to those people who are not in your friend list as the world is full of gossipers and back biters. As it's the era of technology many people are connected to each other through mobile phones, WhatsApp and messaging so these modes communication have made it very easy for people to spread toxic gossips and other secret information. This is the darkest side social media that I have ever seen.

[@ivydune4185]

I don't share my private life or my political views with almost anyone and with that, no one wants to be my friend, because they think I'm strange and they can't connect. I'm just an acquaintance. But I think sharing too much is sick.

[@dianacosgrove691]

Great video and…guilty of this 🤐

[@lydiamusima5257]

Thanks for this video Urania. It's so inspiring. I've learnt this lesson a bit late as I struggled with keeping things private on my former Instagram account and WhatsApp. I shared too much unknowingly as I enjoyed getting attention from the amount of views. I came to notice the distance in so called friendships, how people haven't reached out to me for a long time. I saw that i was the only one making an effort to message them, meanwhile they had all the access to view my regular stories. I realised i needed to set boundaries. So I put a stop to posting stories and also who has access to see them. I've felt nothing but peace since

Agree a few years ago I had told a coworker something but I wasn’t wanting another coworker to know (it wasn’t anything bad) I just knew the one I didn’t tell was the kind of person to share everything with anyone. Reason I didn’t tell her. But the coworker I did tell was friends with her and told her.

[@amazingworld6576]

There is something within me,that is strong enough To keep me from toppling over the edge of sanity, over the ledge of frustration or over the hedge of all out_foolishness It leads me to prayer, when I would otherwise break There is something in my make_up or my upbringing , or just the way I look up That straightens my back, and bows my head It becomes the focus in my meditation, the sentiment in my supplication The reason for my transformation, that thing inside me, has come choosing light though the darkness covers all It Wells up like ocean waves, come to drown those who think they deserve to push me back Hold me down or steal my joy I have a spiritual strength that grows deeper and speaks louder as I get to know more about who I am Remind me daily that am a product of your hands, and all that you make ALL THAT YOU MAKE is perfect.......Amen

I wasn’t sharing much with her but because she was a flat mate for many many years, she would have access to lot of information about me .. since then I decided not to have flatmates or even if I do, I will keep distance from the beginning.
