Attention Addiction

[nebenanx]

I think its good for extroverts to learn how enjoy being by themselves. For me as an introvert I need to learn to enjoy being with others more.

Whether or not we get energized by being around people we all need attention, even me as an introvert (at least as much as extroverts do, even though you cant see it).

In my eyes the key is to learn how to give that attention and positive affiremation to ourselves (to a certain degree) and we will be less dependant.

awesome vid. I wish I had more to say, but I think you said it all.

good point on the attention/social interaction craving taking priority over other things. Fun time is indeed important, but is it really fun to tweet EVERYTHING? another good point on the importance of doing nothing. Down-time is good... and healthy when not done in excess. Clinginess is SO unattractive. those sunglasses, however... HAWT!

i hope you enjoyed your alone time :D Thanks so much for posting this :D

the good out weighs the bad... but it comes down to the individual some people are gonna use twitter for stupid crap and others are gonna use it responsibly

[TheJamesPope]

@Leadman1989

much agreed, though i think the responsible are in the minority

[Leadman1989]

@TheJamesPope

100% correct but that's how it is in "most" aspects of life idiots like to fuck shit up that's what they do lol

[thramagen]

having fun is the point of life, the only reason someone should do something like go to school or strain to progress themselves is if it increases their ability to have fun or others.

as much as I loved the shirt coming off... I don't think I could ever be a passenger in your car LOL. I think you scared me more than even my dad does when he's driving and that's pretty bad!

but seriously (even though I was serious about being scared)... Yeah, we are becoming addicted to attention, if you want to put it that way. And it's not even "good" attention most of the time, if that makes sense. The more outrageous you are the better, it seems... frightening.

@tattooskin72

very nice point, I agree entirely, maybe it speaks to how this forum of human interaction may bring about some of the most primal, and quite often depending on perspective, negative urges of those involved

HAHAHA, TOTAL epic door fail HAHAHAHA - I was waiting for it to take something or someone out.

Silence leads to introspection, very good. Here is a saying for you -

"Company is good for the character as is solitude for the soul."

Definitely is an addiction. I know first hand. But I kicked that recently, and am now focusing on my work.
