Technology pushes everyone to make quick judgments. We have become so accustomed to this new speed that many take offense when you take time before you speak. It takes strength to not immediately move with the crowd and to feel ok about not having much to say because you are still trying to understand what is really happening. It is easier to just adopt what your friends and mass media are saying as your own, but this style of living can lead to being inauthentic and it can weaken your critical thinking. On the other hand, speaking up is powerful, but we should at the least make sure it is coming from a genuine place and not from our craving for approval from others. Our world is certainly one of sharp ups and downs, but we have to be attentive enough to not let the algorithm think for us. When you realize that the internet is battling for your attention, because this is the way it creates profit, it helps you develop a healthy level of skepticism. This understanding encourages you to guard your mind so that it is not inundated with unsubstantiated information. Not getting rushed by others and remaining flexible as you process things helps you keep your peace. — Yung Pueblo #judgment #skepticism #thinkTwice #guardYourMind #yungPueblo https://www.instagram.com/p/ChXQPWyOyYo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
