In today’s discussion, we get to meet Abraham Robertson (@AbrahamNeitaRob), Investor and Entrepreneur, and student of life. We’re talking about something that everyone needs to understand in the 21st century and beyond. Tune in to find out why. ...Have you ever compared yourself consciously or unconsciously to someone on social media? Sometimes it’s people we know, sometimes it’s strangers. Everybody has put the highlight reel of their lives on full display. This has a lot of upsides, but it can also have some scary downsides.

It creates this pressure to chase a false ideal of success/happiness. This is what Abraham has coined as “Experience Stretching.” Which is the topic of today’s podcast.More and more technology is becoming an extension of who we are. For many, social media is at the center of how we connect to everyone and everything.We’re constantly being exposed to new experiences virtually. Our experiences inevitably affect how we see the world and our lives.

We have a choice in how we let this affect us. When we see things online we can choose to:A) Use those experiences to attract and manifestB) Appreciate them without feeling any attachmentC) Compare yourself and feel a sense of lack or insecurity about where you are…Most of us use social media unconsciously without realizing how powerful it is as a tool, it can amplify and connect you to whatever you want.

But with great power comes great responsibility. I personally all kids should take some social media ethics/best practices course. We need to be mindful about how we navigate these platforms and how we let them affect us.

This conversation with Abraham breaks down how we can arm ourselves against the downsides of social media and harness it's power for better. We talk about BF Skinner, The Comparison Trap, Manifestation, Self Awareness, and much more.
