Deleted my Instagram and Facebook last year. All I have now is LinkedIn. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and it was easier for me than it probably would be for most people because I rarely went on social media anyway.

I really don’t care about what other people have going on outside of those closest to me, so I didn’t see a need for social media anymore. It has its benefits if used properly, but it can easily get toxic and not provide any real value or happiness to your life.

Anyone I need to communicate with has my number and/or email address, so we just talk that way.

Yes - haven’t had any social media for over 3 years and it has been amazing. I literally don’t miss it at all. My anxiety/depression has dramatically improved

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree.

I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
