If your self-worth needs Wi-Fi to work, it isn’t really yours.

REFLECTION
Worth that arrives through a screen is worth other people are operating. It moves with the algorithm, the time you posted, who happened to be awake, none of which has anything to do with you. The trouble is that it feels like measurement, so a quiet week starts to read as a verdict.
Build at least one thing with no counter on it. A skill nobody is watching you learn, a friendship that lives offline, work you do because the work is interesting. It will feel thinner at first, because it does not deliver anything to check. Give it a month and notice which one your mood rests on.
How do you feel about yourself with notifications turned off?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
