(My) Social Media Addiction and Behavior Patterns

I won’t delve into the various studies that exist or offer a diatribe of my own.

Suffice to say while I love certain aspects of social media (entertainment and connection) there are other aspects which I find… not so positive.

I find my own behavior pattern even as a business person to be deeply influenced by my own addiction to the scroll.

And so I’ll take another step in resisting the pattern of first turning to socials by posting more here on my blog and sharing directly with my subscribers, many of whom are already friends.

Logically speaking whatever I post here has more impact on my business by keeping my website fresh. Talking about my projects and art here feels more natural and satisfying too.

But the habit of posting first on IG is very difficult to overcome. This will require planning. I’m not great at sticking to plans but I will try!

I think IG and Youtube will be good homes for some of my process video and photos. It will make posting on those platforms fun again.

I hope you’ll follow along HERE and there when you can.

Cheers!
