Recommendation

Leadership trainer Jeremie Kubicek outlines his theory of why social media usage doesn’t lead to “social intelligence.” He offers precepts and strategies for living a consciously determined life with clear goals and deep involvement in the lives of the people with whom you interact on a daily basis. He provides instructions on how to be “in the right gear at the right time” to achieve more productive outcomes and enriching relationships. getAbstract recommends Kubicek’s article to anyone who finds they are checking social media too often and might be losing touch with what’s going on right in front of them.

Take-Aways

  • The more you connect virtually, the less you connect in real life. To lead a more balanced life, practice four main precepts understood by “socially adept” people:
  • First, they learn to identify which of “five gears” they should be in at any given time.
  • Second, they get proficient at “shifting gears by shifting their minds.”
