IS SOCIAL MEDIA DISTRACTING US FROM ACHIVING OUR GOALS?

IS SOCIAL MEDIA DISTRACTING US FROM ACHIVING OUR GOALS?

As the year of 2026 comes to an end. In 2026 things have done a great job of distracting me, and I would imagine other people as well.  And with Football season starting on September 9, 2026 the distraction monitor will intensify for the next six months. Sports, entertainment, and now social media are the biggest ways to distract people from a multitude of things. But for me and others social media for the last three years has distracted me from working on more important goals.

To quote Albert Enstien “If you want a happy Life, tie it to a goal, not people or things”. And with social media in my humble opinion doesn’t tie most people to a goal. It ties them to drama, and nonsense, unless one is at least making money from being on it. And nowadays in 2026, I can honestly say that there more monetized content creators on social media than ever before. But even monetized content creators (At least the smart one’s) know that they have to have other streams of income outside of revenue from social media companies.
