I met a wonderful woman who also loves crazy cycling adventures and we share so much great time together doing the thing we love to do. My mental and physical health has improved exponentially. I lost 20kg. I was promoted at work and bought a house and am now able to be there physically, financially and emotionally for my teenage children. I still look at screens, that's almost unavailable, but the time is much reduced. Freeing my mind from the virus of social media has given me my life back. Life's too short to not ride a bike every day.

Time is the subscription fee. I just calculated it for myself. There are 1,440 minutes in one day, and I’ve spent 56 of those minutes on Facebook alone today. That’s 4% of my day spent on Facebook. It’s 12:49PM, and to take this a bit further, I figured I’ve spent 120.5 minutes(8% of my day) on my phone as a whole, although I’m not sure if I should count Spotify(music while driving). Roughly 8% of my day has been lost to social media. I could be practicing my photography with my new camera, sketching, reading, playing with my pets, gardening, ANYTHING- in the end, all we want is more time, and we are spending(wasting..?)it on social media.

I did the same thing a year ago. Life feels less heavy.

Updated with everything rather than deeply informed about anything - I love that. We are so focused on gather information we will eventually forget or to unimportant rather than truly get invested in a few topics

I had a bad internet addiction for 4 years. It started during the pandemic and I decided to put a full stop to it only at the end of last year. I went from topping my school, being one of the students teachers hoped would do well in entrance exams to colleges, public exams, to literally failing all subjects. This along with other personal issues, my academic topper identity crumbling down, I was broken. Took me a long time to completely stop social media, especially twitter use even though I knew the problem. And when I tried to sit and study again, I was not able to. It really pained and hurt me to maintain focus and concentrate on anything academica related, my speech became slurred, before the pandemic when I was doing amazing, I used to be able to think fast and answer in classes, calculate math in my head very quickly, I have won many prizes and awards, but after pandemic, it was very very hard and I became very slow. Cognitive abilities definitely took a hit and this was what that truly frightened me. Not being able to get back to my genius self. I knew ihad it in me. The potential. Because I had once been using it to a high level. I am slowly recovering now. Focusing is getting more and more easier as I force to sit myself down and study. Somedays it's very hard, I cry. But life has to keep going. Because of this I was not able to grt into my dream colleges, so I've taken another year to study for my entrance exam. And by addiction I meant: more than 16-18 hours per day of internet and social media almost every single day for FOUR DUCKING YEARS. So you can imagine the damage my brain had suffered. If you've read until here, I would be glad if you dropped a comment for me. Bcs this addiction took me away all the connections and friends in my life and I'm alone today. Though there are many life lessons I learnt because of the hard times, the negative impact is also very much and requires much healing. So it would be very helpful for me and heartwarming if someone can drop a comment for me. Thank you. 💛 I wrote all this so nobody would have to go through the same as me. I know I will turn out just fine, and why? Even much better than I was before my pandemic but still it's a very painful and lonely , loveless towards yourself journey. Take care. Use your time wisely for the things that truly matter to you. 💛

Funny thing is social media is said to connect us more but i feel so disconnected ever since I started using it despite virtually communicating back and forth with people on the daily. When I didn't use social media I was so connected with people and had actual strong reliable relationships. When i was sick, I had people physically come see me.

Most phones have an option to set a time limit on apps, just changed my IG time from one hour a day to 10 minutes. Never installed TikTok, never will. After watching this I intend to read more books.

Thank you for this amazing and eye opening ted talk. I deleted tik tok about 10 months ago and I was shocked by how much time i actually had this whole time. I started doing things that i really had passion for and my life has never been better. Also majority of people these days don't seem to be able to make meaningful and deep conversations and that's upsetting. My friend picks on me because I don't have tik tok, but I'm positive that I'm making the right decision every day by choosing to not waste my precious time on social media.

Thank you man!!! The most incredible and truthful speech I’ve heard after ages. I admire your bravery for sending this dark message to the world. The world needs to hear it. At least me! Thanks again!

I love the fact that he delivers the talk with such poise and comfort taking his time to emphasize on the gravity of the subject matter which effectively lengthens the time and would likely annoy the very people it is directed towards. Hearing the talk in its entirety would require patience, not just because of the content but how slowly he is getting to his next point which is in contrast with the short attention span he is addressing.

Exactly 😢

Should be played across every high school in the world..

"While you were trying to avoid FOMO, you were missing out on living." Amazing sentiment.

This is the most needed tedxtalks for this social media addicted generation

"Don't let yourself get to the age of 90 only to look back on your life and realize that while you were trying to avoid FOMO, you actually missed out on living." great TED talk, Dino

This is such an eye-opening talk of how we have shorter time than what we actually think. I feel like I am just saved after watching this.

It's not about what you do, it's about who you do it with.

Thank you man!!! The most incredible and truthful speech I’ve heard after ages. I admire your bravery for sending this dark message to the world. The world needs to hear it. At least me! Thanks again! 🎉

I agree ❤ ... However I believe his message represents light and this world represents what is dark. And it's getting darker. Thank God for this message ❤

It has been a one and half year ago I deleted my all social media accounts and I only use KZread where I get plenty amount of useful information without consuming short cringe content. Because I know "If you not paying for the product then you are a product".

What social media basically do is attract you; your attention. Even if you activate the time limit it’s not gonna work effectively bcs we affected so much to those platforms that we couldn’t live our life without it. This video is a great reminder. Our time is limited.

I'm 20 years ..watching this video really make me to understood about our value with time and ourselves...is the most important thing...♡....

I never liked social media, but this talk misses a point: my focus time is valued at 20 dollars per hour, but my relax time should never be valued in dollars, but in happiness achieved. I plan spending most of that relax time playing board games, computer games, sports, watching TV series, spending time with friends and family... Probably 50% or more of that will be "screen time", because the computer games part of it will take a big chunk of that, but I think that's totally fine, and I'm not doing anything I will regret. I think the problem is that people are doing this out of being distracted, instead of choosing it consciously, and that's problematic, but saying that you should value each hour of your free time 20 dollars is the best way to feel like a failure and burnout, or just waste your life chasing the hassle instead of building your future happiness.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one thinking this. By this logic, anything that I do is a waste of time if it’s not “pursuing a future goal”. I had an anxiety attack after seeing this, especially considering that one of my hobbies is gaming once in awhile.

Well said. It's good to play a game or watch a reel once in a while, if you have a bad day, or if you want to relax. I think that's the point he makes though. He says that you need to make use of social media *moderately*.

Screen time doesn't bring happiness. Some momentary pleasure yes, but when it's over, we usually are frustrated with ourselves at how much time we spent, more than we intended...and yet, the dishes still need to be done.

@@rebeccajacklin3976 when I stop playing games I don't feel frustrated with how much time I spent doing that. I feel recharged and ready to get things done. When something upsetting happens, I normally think about it for some time to see if I can find some solutions or learn something from it, and then use games to get distracted and not overthink. Maybe if instead of demonizing screen time we would just accept it, people wouldn't become so addicted to it, because it would lose the charm of a forbidden thing to turn to when feeling bad. It still takes discipline and we are bound to make mistakes some time, but most of the people around me who see games as a way to relax are much happier than those who see unproductive activities as a time waster, and end up getting stressed and getting less done instead of more.

An absolute eye opener. Prcecise, concise and very well narrated.

I am 25 and I feel like I wasted more than 3 years, but "optimistically" it is not too late!

This was the most precious 11 minutes that I have spent looking at a screen ❤❤❤❤

Damn he is such a charismatic speaker. The confidence, the pauses and everything. They give weight to his speech a lot.

One of the best TedTalks I've ever watched. Really love how he shares this subject from an insightful perspective. Made me think a lot. THANKS A LOT!

"That free time is your most valuable resource. Do not give it away for free." Easily one of the best closing lines 💖

One of the best TED talks ever.

Every line spoken in this talk had a lot of depth. One of the best TEDx talks I've seen so far!

Thank you for this. As a business teacher I showed this video to my students and the discussions there after were so powerful! We learned a lot and now have some solutions moving forward!

I’m watching talks like this every time I find the urge to scroll. Deleted the apps but kept the ones platforms for business but I can feel how addicting they are just being there for business I get sucked in. Thanks for this perspective. Quantifying the time helps

Incredible Presentation with such a valuable message/lesson. This should be shown to every 18 year-old. Thank you for sharing this!

Wow it’s been a while since i watched a full 11-minute video without scrolling and it’s actually really goood. Thank u for this amazing thought-provoking presentation ❤

“Social media is free, because you pay for it with your time” really struck a nerve in me. There's no going back from here for me. Thankyou Dino Ambrosi.

Absolutely amazing - so clean, so concise, not a single word wasted in the whole talk. Loved it.

My Macroeconomics professor always says that, "If anything is free, YOU are the price."

These are the one of the best lessons I have learnt in my social media journey 😮...

This video deserves to be heard! Always coming back to this whenever I'm using social media on streaks.

I’ll join the list of commenters who have deleted social media and feel better for doing so. I don’t miss it at all.

Hands down, this the best ted talk of my life.

Amazing ted talk. Better than I thought it would be! Heavily recommend ❤

I think this is the only KZread video, of more than a couple of minutes in length that I have watched to the end, without reading the comments, in a very long time. That tells its own tale about both its value and also about me.

It's not only wasting my time, but also make me to campare myself with others every moment. I used to follow bloggers and when I figured out that they make me fed up, disappointed and miserable, I avoided them. Now, life is less disappointing!

My partner is my savior because she has gotten me to read for the first time in years. For years I never really read unless it was for uni. This has inspired me to read more and take time to smell the roses.

I think there also needs to be a shift in jobs wanting to get a hold of us after our work hours. That’s not to say we HAVE to answer work emails or texts after hours, but the feeling of being obligated to answer is there because it’s our “job”.

Do what you like to do. If your dreams are big enough, you will be chasing.

Excellent talk, Dino Ambrosi!!!! Simply excellent!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

Beautiful, simple, and clear presentation. Incredible! Thank you.

The calculation is mind blowing. Glad I found this video

It all depends on the angle you apply to it. Social media helped me realize most people are no better than me and I can achieve much more than I used limit myself to before I had access to all this information. It’s a powerful learning tool for those of us who didn’t grow up with good support system and education.

The stories that I could've write that i did not because my head always says that "Let's go find some motivation while scrolling through social medias" then just when I realized that I should be writing, I already wasted hours and and that made me feel unmotivated. It's a cycle really.

Thanks for making me understand the value of time. A quality session indeed !

Mind blowing..like mind blowing.. this is a life changing ted talk if realized

That was one of the most objective TED talks I've seen in a while. Straight to the point.

Greatest Ted talk of all time, I'd not pay any meaningless attention to these devices anymore, thanks sir.

I recently removed my instagram, snapchat and TikTok accounts and I see this video now. So glad I made this choice and I hope it will help me reach my goals in the long run. Being off the grid is really freeing and I can recommend it to everyone. It is a big step, I totally agree and it took me multiple months, but the end result is truly worth it!

I'm a dedicated viewer from India, and I've greatly benefited from your insightful videos. Recently, I observed that KZread introduced a feature allowing users to switch audio tracks to different languages. This has proven to be extremely beneficial for content accessibility, as demonstrated by major KZreadrs like MrBeast. Considering the diverse global audience, I believe incorporating multilingual audio tracks in your videos could significantly enhance the learning experience for viewers who encounter language challenges. This feature has the potential to make your valuable content accessible to a wider international audience. Thank you for considering this suggestion. Looking forward to more enriching content from you.
