Digital relationships cannot replace the in-person community.
The increased focus on productivity and constant busyness have led to a decline in meaningful communities and a rise in social isolation and related mood disorders. Taking the extra effort to be with others in real life is worth it.

Foster an “In-Real-Life” Community

Just be yourself. The more you can be completely involved in all of you - the good, the bad, the sad, the better you'll feel and the better you'll be.
You don't have to live up to an online perception of yourself or the workplace self. Just being who you are will enable you to make more genuine connections with others and gain real support when you need it.

Be Vulnerable

One of the most popular self-improvement expressions is "good is the enemy of great." Although it sounds appealing, it might also be wrong.
