Girl Versus World

This is a question that came up recently - Are photo filters ruining our self esteem? We see them being used on virtually every social media outlet. Sometimes we know for sure someone is using a filter and other times maybe it's photo shop or real life. It used to be that we knew that magazines and print were all photoshopped to some degree and we were okay with that. But now, it's getting harder and harder to tell and often times when the filter comes off, we are left feeling bad about ourselves. There is no filter for real life. In today's episode, I talk about the affect that the filters seem to be having on our self esteem. I even polled some of my own friends to get their feedback on the matter.

Every single person is going through something or has gone through something that has brought them to their breaking point one way or another. We sometimes get this idea in our heads that other people are perfect. I hate to break it to you but they are not. Nobody is perfect. Not a single person out there. So to compare ourselves to other imperfect beings is futile. If we go into this world with the understanding that everyone is at least a little fucked up - then we can stop comparing ourselves and judging our own journeys so harshly. In this episode I bust open the idea that we should have compassion on all humans because we truly don't know who they are, what they are going through or what they've been through that makes them who they are today. When you understand that how people treat you rarely has anything to actually do with you - you can have empathy and compassion.

I didn't learn this until much later in life that you have to invest time in self discovery. Nobody really teaches us this, it's something we learn in adulthood. But how does one go about actually finding themselves? Go on a walkabout? Have an Eat Pray Love experience? Give up everything and start over? Sure, you could do those things if you want - for some of us self discovery is more extreme. However, it doesn't have to be that extreme at all. You could simply start right now and I'll talk you through how on this episode of Girl Versus World.

Starting over gets a bad reputation. Often times people see starting over as a failure. What if you could actually look at starting over as a success? I've had to start over several times in my life and each time I've had to reset my life, it's gotten better and better. Instead of starting over from scratch, I've started over with experience and THAT is what has made all the difference in the world.

Are you having trouble focusing? Do you find yourself picking up your phone in-between tasks or while you are just sitting around doing nothing? Maybe it's the only think you can really focus on for hours at a time. It's time for a reality check - you might be suffering from a social media addiction, fomo or even some social media related depression that you keep feeding the longer you stare into that tiny screen. The world is different now - we perceived everything through a digital screen and it's having a major affect on the way people think and behave. It's a side affect of constantly comparing ourselves to other. We are watching others and feel like we aren't doing enough in your own lives based on seeing someone else's highlight reel of their life. It's taking a toll on everyone. I struggle with this constantly and it's time to talk about it. Plus, I'm going to share what I'm doing to actively overcome it.
