I am beyond guilty of this fatal flaw of my generation. We feel compelled to document every sight and post every thought. There’s something to be said about being in the moment – not recording it, not taking a picture of it, and not sharing it with the internet. We need to spend time listening to people when they speak.

I really need to work on this this year. I always use the excuse that I need social media for my job and my portfolio, but to be perfectly honest – I shouldn’t allow my job to completely consume my life. Here’s to making positive changes in the new year!
