QUITTING SOCIAL MEDIA WITH OTHERS
Been thinking a lot about Priya Parker’s idea of group help vs self help concept, and Mel Mitchell-Jackson nails it in in a recent post, ‘on healing our attention and what’s at stake,’
We are all in the midst of unlearning the patterns of screen time from the early pandemic, but putting we’re the blame on ourselves and saying this is just a personal issue to solve.
This ignores the cultural conditions. It ignores that the intention we built with these spaces was to connect with our people. That is the thing that keeps me going back each time I try to stop. Quitting must happen with others.
Deleting an app while sitting alone on the couch with a laptop and big screen TV in front of us might not be the best way to regain our attention, but maybe finding other people in a similar pursuit could help.
