On Instagram or Facebook someone is having a better vacation than we had.
Or is wearing more stylish clothes.
More friends on social media even if they don’t know them all.
A new job gets a big announcement and plenty of congrats.
Seems things are perfect in cyberspace.
Even when we consciously try not to have high expectations, when it is a tap away on the phone, it is easy to be a bit envious and disappointed.
Disconnect from time to time.
And repeat this mantra:
Keep your expectations low and your motivation high to avoid the ups and downs that are so prevalent in the digital world.
