why i quit twitter and here is the 5 things i learned

okay the title might sounds suuuper mainstream but that is really what the topic of my paragraphs going to be! well, i did have that moment of my life where i feel TOO MUCH, like i consume too much informations, too much visuals, too much of unnecessary things that doesn't really important and that causing me to feel anxious and i started to be ungrateful with the beautiful life that i have.

so i quit twitter for good since Oct 15th, 2018. that was the last date that i posted a tweet. i remember reading some kind of politics statement from random people and that was my turning point to finally have the urge to get off of that platform. i am not saying that i against twitter, it's only i feel deep, overthinks.. and by reading alot of people sharing their minds over there in short sentences just somehow making me feel too much because i feel in every sentence you write.. like i am serious, i could think about what you posted for few minutes. i mean that should not be like that, but it was difficult to control my mind at that time. (now i can control my mind better, don't worry) and yeah it happened just like that, i deleted the app and BAM! my life is soo much peaceful. 

i do miss tweeting which i already thought i would, so then i create a solution to bought a mini notebook. inside i will just write whatever i feel like to tweet, just a short thoughts and that helps! i will show the pictures here:

i am naturally always feel like sharing, and after i share (by writing) i feel like the check box is being checked, so basically it was only my mind playing the trick. right? until today, i never regret making that decision, instead i am very grateful for myself for coming out of her comfort zone! i do not deleted my account because i like to cling into memories, probably once in a year i open or in a few months where i feel like checking my own profile, also its a nice content for my timehop app! haha

and there is of course things that i learned from staying off of twitter:

1. i realize that it is okay to not know all the news happening
2. it is okay to not read those famous thread that people have been talking about
3. it is true the term that no one is really care about you, especially in the digital platform
4. the one who really wants you to know about them will reach out to you instead of tweet it out
5. people quickly forgot about the things that they read especially on a very short and fast pace like twitter, so basically you are just absent mindedly filling your mind with unnecessary information that you will forgot in the next few hours

well i hope you learned at least one thing from my thoughts above. some people do better at controlling their mind and that is such a skill, unfortunately i was not so yeah this best digital decision happened and that's also alright! but if you do consider of quitting twitter, try to take a mini notebook wherever you go, it will help you! try it and trick your mind ;)

thank you for reading.
write to you soon,
