#5 Give up on social media!

Yes, we will continue the broken record that everyone has been echoing in the past few years. But, while the digital world and apps have been a great help during the pandemic and in general at helping us keep in contact with loved ones while hundreds of miles apart, a lot of us spend too much time looking at our screens!
