Social media is all ME, ME, ME.

I’m guilty of this. Since I have to create so much content and make sure it’s all posted and shared at certain times, I forget about the social part of social media.

Is my stuff posted? Did I get any comments? What’s the response to my stuff?

I know when I get in this mindset that I’m overtaxed and in desperate need of an attitude adjustment. 

I need an attitude of gratitude.

I need to forget myself and start using Instagram and the other platforms as they are intended – to connect.

I need to send little notes of love and encouragement to people I follow. 

I was scrolling through today and realized that I had mentally admired a friend’s posts, read and even liked it, but hadn’t left a comment in a long time to tell her how I felt. 

I know from being on the receiving end of such kindness that it can make all the difference between me thinking “This was so dumb! Why did I even post it?” to “Aw, well maybe it’s not so bad after all. Maybe I am helping people :-)”

If likes are kindness confetti. Comments are love bombs.

Drop a few bombs today šŸ˜‰
