Social Media and Me

Image
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube - anything online that requires you and a thousand others to share information, text, images, videos and links to more text, images and videos. COMPTETITION From my own perspective, everytime I go online, I feel the urge to post something that would attract attention. Why? Because you see a lot of your 'friends' posting pictures of having a good time, enjoying this and that, and you feel the urge to compete. STRESS How many good things do you see on your newsfeed apart from memes? According to an article on bbc.com states that people tend to use social media to "vent about everything from customer service to politics". This reminds me of the PHT (PNG Happenings Today) facebook group. In 2015, researchers (Pew Research Center - Washington DC - www.pewinternet.org) found out that social media induces more stress than it relieves. Why? Your reading about problems, seeing pictures, watching videos about complaints

Business Ideas from "Economic Warfare"

First of all watch this video Three things you either have or you dont have is GUTS, PASSION and BRAINs. If you dont have one of the three, find someone who has it and learn from them. Relying on salaries these days in a country like PNG is unrealistic. We have a lot of obligations compared to Western Cutlure. Alhtough we are trying to be like them and be ourselves at the same time is impossible. Things I've learned so far: 1. Find a role model and follow their footsteps 2. Do not have a back up plan or plan Bs 3. Take control of your life and start now Having a backup plan shows that you have doubt, if you fail, try again and again until you succeed at it. Its either you pass or fail and no other way around it. I feel like Im giving gradueates and enteprenuers a pep talk. Anyways, I suggest watching this video with other related videos for self motivation. :)
