Six weeks ago, I decided to delete Instagram from my phone, and honestly, it was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time.
I was stuck in a loop of feeling anxious, distracted, and wasting 2-3 hours a day scrolling endlessly.
Ended up travelling Florence and Thailand without IG too. Honestly, it has been the best decision ever, you'll see why.
Here's what I cover in this video:
- Why I deleted Instagram (goodbye FOMO, hello mental space!)
- How the Opal app helped (but wasn’t enough on its own)
- My journey to regaining focus, presence, and control over my mind
- The challenges I faced and what helped me push through
- The goal: Having true control over my attention (because losing control = losing freedom)
- Key lessons learned: Changing your environment is easier than relying on willpower
- Will I reinstall Instagram? Stay tuned to find out!
