You tell yourself you just like staying informed.
You care about people. You want to know what’s happening in their lives.
So you check their updates. Their wins. Their trips. Their milestones.
But somehow, after scrolling through everyone else’s life, you feel tired. Behind. Restless.
You weren’t even comparing… yet your energy feels lower.
What if you didn’t need to be updated on everyone to stay connected?
What if real connection meant fewer updates — but deeper ones?
A short call. A voice note. One meaningful conversation.
Your brain processes every story as social information. Even passive scrolling triggers subtle comparison, evaluation, and emotional reaction. That’s mental work. And it adds up.
Being informed is not the same as being connected.
Watching people live is not the same as sharing life with them. Or talking with each and everyone.
Happiness grows in meaningful conversations — not constant updates and comparisons.
This week, try reducing the “updates.”
Choose one person. Reach out directly. Ask a real question.
Less monitoring. More meaning.
