It only comes after your more important to-dos are done. Have regular days completely off social media.<\/li><li>Be mindful of your time, don\u2019t waste it (perhaps you should fix a limit for the time you spend on social media, e.g., one hour a week).<\/li><li>Don\u2019t use social media to brag or complain (and please don\u2019t share pictures of each and every meal you have!).<\/li><li>Choose the right communities. Join social media platforms (or sub-groups within these social media platforms) that are related to your aspirations.<\/li><li>Avoid associating yourself with \u201cnegative\u201d people. Connect instead with those who inspire or motivate you.<\/li><li>Consider goal-oriented social platforms such as <a title=\"Runkeeper\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/runkeeper.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">runkeeper<\/a> (running), <a title=\"Mapmyfitness\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mapmyfitness.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">mapmyfitness<\/a> (fitness training), <a title=\"Loseit\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.loseit.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">loseit<\/a> (weight loss), <a title=\"Busuu\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.busuu.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">busuu<\/a> (language learning), and of course <a href=\"https:\/\/goalmap.com\/en\/motivational-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)\">Goalmap<\/a> (everything).<\/li><li>Stay focused. There is a lot of noise on social media, avoid the <a title=\"Information Overload Wikipedia\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Information_overload\" target=\"_blank\">information overload<\/a>. Just get and give what is useful.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p> <strong>There are many things of which a wise man might wish to be ignorant.<\/strong><\/p><cite>Ralph Waldo Emerson <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like money, social media isn&rsquo;t the root of all evils. It can be harmful if used pointlessly, and powerful when levered smartly. If you get sucked into it and become a social media puppet, it will be the root of many failures.
