The “likes,” “comments,” and “retweets” received 
on social media often give people a false 
sense of companionship.

2
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,900
They feel like they have hundreds of friends, 
but when they need friends the most,

3
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,000
the computer screen provides an echo of loneliness 
and frustration. Social media has positive 
elements,

4
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:34,100
but if relied on as your sole source of interaction 
with people, I guarantee you’ll find yourself 
feeling emptier than ever.

5
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:41,100
That’s why I challenge you to place a priority 
on face-to-face interaction with family and 
friends,

6
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:48,500
value self-disclosure with trusted people, 
and above all, put your phone down when you 
are with others.

7
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,800
People deserve your undivided attention.
