Since the advent of social media many have used it as an easy escape from what they call loneliness and more. There are different motives in the mind of those who make use of the different platforms, and everyone makes use of it based on his or her own understanding of things.
Severally I have come across people who are social media freaks; that is to say, anything that flies past their area must be related in the social media. While this is good to socialize using these web2 and web3 platforms, one just needs to be guided because many have met their unexpected death through this platform. In that many met with their spouse through the platforms, and they are doing well today.
Any place you get to see good people, there are bad people too.Through a person's social handles, you can tell to a good extent the kind of person he or she is. Many people get exposed to the social media even before they get to know their left from their right, so at those moments of ignorance, some people don't have control of what they allow in their space.
When I have the opportunity to introduce people to any socials that require they talk about themselves, I always encourage them to write things that they want the public to know about them and also for them to represent themselves well. Some people walk with this little advice while others don't even give an ear to it. If I am in the place to employ people to work with me, I will make provision for them to provide links to their social media handles.
Truth be told, I need to know who I will be working with to a good extent. By the time I take my time to go through someone's socials, I can tell the kind of person he or she is. I have done this on several occasions, and I am not fed up with doing it. At times when I am introduced to someone, I just make a demand for his full name, and then I go check it up myself. Sometimes some organizations don't even bother to ask directly for the socials; they just get there and make a silent search about a person. Some people, on getting to know that the organization wants to go over their socials, will go ahead and remove things that they don't want them to know.
As a way of summary, not only in dressing should people be able to say a little about you, but also in the way you carry yourself about in your social handles. It is not wise to spill your stomach in public simply because you feel you have that freedom of speech. Many people are in the socials for different reasons than using the socials to say things or do things that are uncalled for. Use the platforms to promote yourself. It's not bad to form a niche and grow there by as many are making ends meet through it too.My participation for the Hive Learners contest week #149 and the first edition. I do wish you the best of this week and do stay blessed and motivated.
