Why you Should Never Take Life Advice on The Internet — My Manifesto for Life in a World of Instant Gratification
4 min readOct 9, 2017
Instant Gratification
Non-existent attention spans
This is the age of ‘I want it yesterday’ and ‘i’m bored of you already’.
The age of expectation while having zero appreciation
My time is valuable so you better treat it wisely but I need all of yours
We are quick to Judge but slow to reflect
We see other people’s mistakes without witnessing our own. We ignore the bad we have done in ourselves and the good in the people around us.
The grass is always greener until green isn’t the colour we want
We let the manicured pictures people flaunt on social media influence our own happiness, instead of understanding the game. We experience debilitating unhappiness by comparing what we don’t have to what other people do.
