Instead of spending hours on Instagram scrolling through the things that you don’t have and the houses you can’t afford, spend time focusing on creating. Creating content that is personal to you. Create things that help you tell your story.There are lots of ways we can create content. Create videos that tell the world how you see it. Put words on a page that articulate how your brain works. Voice your thoughts through podcasting. There are a million and one ways to tell the world your story. If you spend all your time listening to whatever else is saying you forget you’ve got a voice.

Consume vs. Create

If starting a side hustle and building something outside your 9–5 is your dream then the first place to look is where you spend your time. Time is going to be the one thing that gets in your way.&nbsp;So arguably to give yourself the best chances of success, you need to assess where you spend your time.

Assessing Where You Spend Your Time

<h2>Experiment with content to find what works</h2><ul><li>Experiment a little. So watch some content and see how you feel. Rate your motivation out of ten. Then rate your self-worth out of ten. Do that over a period of a week and see which content spurs on the most.</li><li>This will help you understand which content is motivating you and which content is making you jealous and have low self-esteem. Then after that, comes the best bit. A social media clear-out is in order. Get rid of the people that are making you feel crap and add in more of the motivational stuff.</li></ul>

Curate Your Content Feed to Achieve Your Goals

Far better to live your own path imperfectly than to live another’s perfectly.

Whether we like it or not, social media is where the attention is.We’re not walking down the streets anymore looking at billboards. No one watches live TV anymore, it’s either watch it on catch up or flick over to Netflix — why? No ads. Most people hate ads.Social media has opened the door for one phenomenon in the marketing world. Direct to consume target marketing. It’s not about the size of the audience isn’t about the percentage of them that buy.

Social Media and Your Time

Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future.

Social media is there to connect people. It’s done a brilliant job of connecting the world and focusing people’s attention on what is important to them.But if someone is right in front of you, connect with them. There is no replacement for face-to-face interaction. So with that in mind, I think it’s a good rule to set.

Limit the Social Media Exposure When You’re in Company

If you want to get productive watch someone that is more productive than you. If the content you consume is purely humble brags, it's likely to do little for your motivation.&nbsp;You need to surround yourself with people (over the internet) that will spur you on. That you look up to and aspire to be like, not those who make you feel inferior.

2.5 billion times. Opportunities, I suppose. Opportunities to do whatever you want with your life, your world, your time. With every heartbeat goes another moment. And it’s in those moments, with…
