Especially in the summer, their are a lot of students stuck at home using social media. Hamza, I’m grateful you’re here leading a group of young men on the right path.
I was one of them, using Instagram 6/7 hours a day, around 10 hr screentime daily, I won't deny I still have high screen time around 4 hours but most of it is due to my educational purpose. I am so grateful I found this channel, I literally didn't know what I am doing with my life and I currently have a much better life. I feel everyone can do this, we must keep growing and restrict the distractions
The real issue if we being honesty is intimacy man has lost his ability to empathize and connect because technology infantilises man. So summarise social media is a symptom of our immaturity and lack of emotional depth
Self improvement works dude...this shit works. I'm about to turn 18, was a Jeffery, more close to Adonis now. Running daily, working out, working on side hustle, meditation, audiobooks, podcasts.... THIS SHIT WORKS ! I can't express how good I feel....
I fully quit social media a few months ago and I can't even describe what an impact it has made. I feel so much more at ease and generally content every day of my life.
Same thing happened to me tbh i sat in my room alone playing crappy video games and got happy birthdays over social media but only by 2-5 people, i then went to the park and just sat there on a bench and realised how lonely and how depressing it was
Social media is the most widely used, the most socially accepted drug. Its the mainstream drug of today. And I wouldn't be so sure that its any less harmful than the other drugs.
Its been almost 9 months since i've deleted instagram and 3 since i've deleted reddit and suddenly every aspect of my life has improved drastically. Only after leaving this drug do you realise what kind of a curse it is on our society and loved ones. You feel a lot more happy and fulfilled, and when you go out and see everyone using their phones all the time you can't help but feel ur a better person and how stupid social media actually is. I am currently trying to control my youtube intake and i've made great progress and I suggest you do too. Stay strong kings!!
@Sp0iledTransgirl Yes. The Unabomber was right, i suggest you read his Manifesto. It describes exactly this, and the other tragic sideeffects of technology.
@@mouneebak2078 it probably starts by someone making a comment, and it getting a lot of upvotes, they call it karma. Anyways that happens, then the person starts commenting hot takes and ideologies that will get positive feed back in the echo chamber.

Social media is a big lifestyle competition, who’s got the most money, best social life, luxurious travel, most attractive, workouts, biggest entrepreneur, likes, followers.. it’s a never ending cycle of toxicity
While I was on Instagram all I see is people enjoying their lives. Partying, travelling across the world, doing all these incredible things. I deleted the app because it made me feel isolated, like I was the only one who wasn't doing anything. That was 2 months ago, I feel much better now.
IT'S ON US HOW WE TAKE IT AND SO DO SOCIAL MEDIA LET US TO SEE PERSON LIKE HAMZA WHO COULD MOTIVATE US AND SHOW US THE RIGHT PATH. SO DO ANDREW TATE IK EVEN THOUGH THAT GUY IS LIKE MAKE NO SENSE AND WEIRD BUT STILL HIS WORDS DOESN MADE AN IMPACT. HAMZA AND SEEING THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMENT SECTION TRYING TO BE BE THE BEST VERSION OF THEMSELVES MAKES IT EVEN MORE FUN TO BE THE BEST VERSION OF US LIKE A COMPETITION OR A VIDEO GAME WHO PROGRESS MORE. IT'S ALL ON US SO MANY PEOPLE JUST WATCHED THE VIDEO AND DID THE SAME SHIT THEY DO EVERYDAY BUT WE ARE NOT LIKE THOSE THAT'S WHY WE ARE USING SOCIAL MEDIA FOR GOOD. TRYING TO IMPROVE INSTEAD OF SITTING ALL DAY USING INSTA,FB ETC. GETTING FAT LAZY WON'T WORKOUT CAUSE IT'S HARD AND PAINFUL.
Hey Hamza, I did quit social media the day I found your channel about 5-6 months ago, I had a feeling that all those friends on social media were not really my friends and now I've confirmed it. I'm not invited to no parties, no trips, no where. I only have one true friend who also has just me as his best friend and we've been on this journey for 2years together. I'm really grateful for your knowledge.

Being alone and being lonely are two different things. At 35 years old, I now realize just how special being alone and in peace really is and feels. I've lost 99.99% of my friends over the years and I am completely alright with that. Less drama, less headaches, more peace and more me time. Yeah it's good to be social but I am social on my terms and only when I feel like being social. I'd much rather take a lone hike in the woods then go to a friendly gathering.

It's gotten to the point where I've became too addicted to Instagram, and Discord. All because of craving for some social attention and likes. I'll admit I am a shy person, overweight, and suffering from social anxiety in real social situations. It's never fun at all when you really want to say hi to some strangers, start conversations, and connect with people in general, but at the same time, voices of fear and doubt plague your mind, so you never bother take the risk. All because of the negative story we tell ourselves every day, when comparing ourselves to people on Social media and in real life, living inside our head 24 7. It has taken a huge toll on my mental health from the moment I've started using both Facebook, and Instagram, for years. It doesn't affect my mental health as much, as I don't post on Facebook anymore- I still post on instagram once in a while. However this video has been very eye opening for me to learn the truth that our western society promotes fake narcissistic high lives and daily doses of short term pleasure, over love, connection, self love, and long term success and prosperity. Currently in the process of improving my social skills piece by piece, and losing weight too. You've been a great help Hamza. Keep it up.
@Sllab 1.During my walks outside, when I see a stranger and we happen to make eye contact, I say hello, or just nod my head hello. You don't have to do this to every stranger you meet. If some people respond to your hellos, great. If not count it as their loss, even though it's embarrassing at first. 2. Be more open and genuinely interested in others. Get to know your friends more, ask questions to learn about stuff to keep the conversation going. Also listen to understand more than to respond, and maybe you might have the same experience as the person who's sharing their story, and want to add something to the conversation. When they're finished though so don't interrupt, unless you don't understand a certain thing the person is trying to convey and want to know what they mean, or have somewhere you need to go and need to end the conversation short. There was once an individual narcissist in my friend group, who kept on stealing other people's turns to speak, just so she can ramble on about unimportant shit and hear the sound of her voice. At that point we just lost interest in her. You don't want to be that person, it's toxic. 3.Also highly recommend the book, How To Win Friends And Influence People, by Dale Carnegie. I'm half way on reading the book, but you will learn a lot from it as it gives you some insight on what and what not to do when socializing with others. 4. Lastly These are advices from a dear friend of mine, who's overcame the demons that you and I are facing(which is social anxiety and shyness) that's, listen to how people talk and look at their body language. That should tell you about the individual's personality. Be comfortable with yourself-focus on your talents, your values, your tastes, your dislikes, beliefs, your dreams and what you want to offer to the world. And if you close yourself off from people, 1. You won't get your heart broken, but 2. You'll have a very hard time connecting with people and making new friends. So it's a double edge sword, but at the same time, you discover who's really for you, and who's not. Hope that helps🙂
@@monekysunglsa6682 To put it bluntly, I would wait desperately check Discord or dms for friends' responses, when I dm, or text them, knowing that they're busy. So in my black and white thoughts, no instant reply at all meant that I'm ignored or not loved. The same with Instagram- no instant likes=I'm ignored or no one likes what I've posted. Being mindful, and meditation is what increased my awareness of these insecure thoughts that were fueling my need for attention.

Bro honestly speaking I too searched that some months ago and I am too 17 y/o Thankfully I am doing good now.. How have you been? I hope everything is fine and going great 😊
To be frank, I never thought of it like that until Hamza said it. Yes, social media makes you feel lonely and unsocial af. You are made to feel missed out on useless trends, worthless celebrities (those who do literally nothing and just get famous all of a sudden) and stuff you don't have to use at all.

I didn't delete social media, but I haven't been using it as often, dude, if I could explain how many more friends I made when I wasnt glued to my phone all day. It actually started changing my life.
I haven't had a friend group since mid 2020. Pretty much lost my then last long-term friend by the end of that year. Had another friend till recently but was just hanging out with him once in 2 months. Went out on a few dates in a the meantime but mostly meh. Met my college peers while still online, it's my only hope right now of a friend group. Having a good friend group is so goated and makes everything easier and worthwile.
Very true what you said here Hamza. I’m only in high school right now. I used to scroll through Snapchat stories, and I saw all the people in my school going out with Friends, having pool parties. And I was stuck in my room looking at them in pixels on a screen. I took a huge step back from Social Media. Best step I ever took in my life. Now I can actually focus on real life interactions and growth. Keep it up brothers. 🙏🏻
i totally i agree with u. I used to play alot of video games and talking to people online and sitting all day on computer. until recently 5 months ago i started to do sports and going out with friends and i realised that computer and phones are damaging me. I recently remembered the lonely times i had when i didnt do anything else but sit at the computer.
We live in a world where social media use is inevitable and as a man you must be disciplined enough to be able to know when to put down the phone, we live in a culture that lacks accountability and that must change. I was asked to make a video on my social media use personally and I think this video was the kick up the arse I needed

Thank you Hamza, I would be nothing without you. I have followed you for only a few months and already I have changed so much and ive even started a youtube channel for self improvement and I am forever greatful to you
I have deleted all my social media accounts and have been "sober" for almost 2 months now and I can definitely say that it has changed my life forever and I'm never going back again Not having a social media has made me respect me and my time better than when I had a social media and was online for hours at end
Thank you so much for this, Hamza. I’m done with Instagram now. Done. I don’t need to post about and showcase my life just to prove it’s happening to others. It’s mine. Mine to live and mine to improve.
I've deleted Reddit and TikTok off my phone, I was using TikTok for 6-8 hours a day just swiping on videos the entire time. Time to ground myself in reality and really start getting to the life that I want
quit tiktok and instagram 2 weeks ago, i contemplated my decision for the past few months prior to quitting them, all and all it was prolly one of the best " sacrifice" ive ever made recently. yes the fomo syndrome kinda pops out randomly when my friends circle are having convos related to the media celebrity news but it rlly just goes away by itself by questioning the feeling of fomo itself.
I think a big thing when I deleted most of my socials was that, like you said, I needed/need to rebalance the scale which has been so unevenly tipped into the favor of social interaction online rather in person. The only thing is most people are people who, off first impressions, don't care a whole lot for their future, and neither their mental health. Me personally I'm a Christian so I have to be disconnected from everything degenerate or disliked in the eyes of God, so making friends or just having social interactions with anyone who fits this strict criteria is so hard. Especially at this time in my life. I have a good bunch of friends, only I don't see them too often compared to the many other people I see. I thank you though Hamza, you are one of the reasons I started thinking more open mindedly, and made me have some humility. I wrote down and noted a lot of the advice, and find it to be very useful. The only thing I really got to get down is meditation which I understand is a big thing you endorse. But I'll do it for a bit.
Thanks Hamza for this, this made me reminisce of the good times I had with my friends in person I will try to stay away from social media and be more active. You are a life changing man or more of a legend.
I'll be honest with you - I wasn't with Hamza on the topic of social media... until yesterday Some context - I've structured my social media in a way where it's genuinely productive. I have literally unfollowed (or muted) every single personal account. Instead, I have started following a bunch of the people that I look up to, and a bunch of the people those people look up to. And you know what? It worked - every singe time I opened IG, I learned something new and useful. I wouldn't feel a compulsion to keep opening the app over and over either. Until yesterday... I was never that huge into shorts. I simply dislike the whole concept, and I value my attention span, so I avoided them like the plague. But yesterday, I was tired - like, really tired. Been working on my business the whole day, and my brain was too fried to do anything productive. So I decided to check out IG shorts. I have never felt so depressed, and inadequate - I've been lifting weights consistently for 10 years. I've stepped foot in a gym for the first time when I was 16, and I'm 26 now. But, when I opened shorts, I saw this one guy - he was 20, and completely stunted on my physique in every single way. Ok... I guess it's just a fluke - steroid use is rampant amongst Instagram mode.... another guy, exactly the same. And another one. And another one. I couldn't stop scrolling, and with each scroll, my work of 10 years kept getting invalidated. Everything I have piushed so hard for, instantly dismantled by some dude that has been lifting weights for 2 years and claims natural. I deleted instagram. I hate that platform with a passion.
man all the words you just said are 100% true. I literally am experiencing the same thing. Spending time on Social media gives us a false feeling that we are connected but we aren't. The problem is without social media, you will feel a need to go out and meet people in person . But social media fulfills this feeling virtually which is not real and you just get this sense of satisfaction for that moment. But the moment you shut you phone you realize how lonely you truly are.
I’m 17 now but i have a memory of my 15th birthday, i stayed up until midnight and the second it turned 00:00 i had an instant message from my friend wishing me happy birthday. Normally this would make me happy but we went to the same school. They we’re going to see me in less than 9 hours, i still appreciate it but I couldn’t help but think they waited just to get it out the way. If they’d waited to do it in person it would feel 10X meaningful. I’m trying to improve socially but it’s got worse, i had 2 wishes recently (besides family) and the person i would once considered my best friend was belated by 10 days (not the same person) i’m not sad just bummed it’s become so clear to me how little most people care how they act so automated to avoid inconvenience towards them, this is an issue we all need to work on even myself, but the best way we have is to remove social media, to make actual connections with actual people instead of having 500 followers (“friends”) that hold you accountable and care for you.
I agree with this. lately I got distracted by these new friends in a gc for school like they keep on talking alot on social media and I realized I get distracted if I mind it too much.
It's true that you NEED social connections. I had a long streak of nofap when I was very social but the moment I focused on social media and got the whole "I don't need anyone" mentality, I felt blank and failed. A year later, I'm social af again at College and now I have a good streak after a long time. Not even counting anymore.
I can’t find people who are really into self improving and becoming the best version of themselves, all my surroundings are just emerged in social media, i feel like their brain cells are dead and can’t think, they only talk about people, parties and and memes which is super boring, they can’t see the world in the grand scheme, they don’t understand that all this is just a facade that we need to overcome i feel lonely.
Especially in the summer, their are a lot of students stuck at home using social media. Hamza, I’m grateful you’re here leading a group of young men on the right path.
I was one of them, using Instagram 6/7 hours a day, around 10 hr screentime daily, I won't deny I still have high screen time around 4 hours but most of it is due to my educational purpose.

Bro im like fkn 14 doing weights, meditation all that braz on my 3rd journal oh no socials too, lifes a fucken breeze
The first part sounds like me currently but I'll start social once I'm good enough
The thumbnail quality 🔥
i totally i agree with u. I used to play alot of video games and talking to people online and sitting all day on computer. until recently 5 months ago i started to do sports and going out with friends and i realised that computer and phones are damaging me. I recently remembered the lonely times i had when i didnt do anything else but sit at the computer.
What a thumbnail though, so sick
The art on the thumbnail was truly beautiful
We live in a world where social media use is inevitable and as a man you must be disciplined enough to be able to know when to put down the phone, we live in a culture that lacks accountability and that must change. I was asked to make a video on my social media use personally and I think this video was the kick up the arse I needed
The Unabomber Was Right. Read the Unabomber Manifesto: Industrial Society And Its Future. Read Ted Kaczynskis Manifesto. He was right. A Modern Day Prophet. Spread this message.
Thumbnail art is insane
Thank you Hamza, I would be nothing without you. I have followed you for only a few months and already I have changed so much and ive even started a youtube channel for self improvement and I am forever greatful to you
I have deleted all my social media accounts and have been "sober" for almost 2 months now and I can definitely say that it has changed my life forever and I'm never going back again
Not having a social media has made me respect me and my time better than when I had a social media and was online for hours at end
NGL my dopamine surges on seeing your videos❤️
tate and sneak got me through summer. ur gonna get me through school man
Thank you so much for this, Hamza. I’m done with Instagram now. Done. I don’t need to post about and showcase my life just to prove it’s happening to others. It’s mine. Mine to live and mine to improve.
hell yeah
Ig is cringe
We would have been better off without social media.
I owe u a lot of things bro i will make sure I'll pay all of them off...
When we needed each other the most, we never came
That thumbail is amazing ngl. keep up the work Hamza love it!!
and ik u didnt do the thumbnail lol
unless maybe u did....
I think he does, hamza di picasso
that thumbnail was dope asf
I've deleted Reddit and TikTok off my phone, I was using TikTok for 6-8 hours a day just swiping on videos the entire time. Time to ground myself in reality and really start getting to the life that I want
social media isnt bad but we don't need it
1 week without Social Media. I feel relieved and so happy. Well apart from RUclips witch I spend no more than 2 hours a day.
quit tiktok and instagram 2 weeks ago, i contemplated my decision for the past few months prior to quitting them, all and all it was prolly one of the best " sacrifice" ive ever made recently. yes the fomo syndrome kinda pops out randomly when my friends circle are having convos related to the media celebrity news but it rlly just goes away by itself by questioning the feeling of fomo itself.
UR EDITOR IS DOING SOME REALY NICE WORK
Thanks g
Great thumbnail Hamza 👍
Bruhhh is speaking straight up Factsss 😭😭
Well one should quit watching yt. Too many people, but too addicted. The real problem... 😔
True no one speaks about RUclips addiction I’m sure all of us have it
most people are aware of addictions like smoking, alcohol and drugs, but people rarely talk about social media and video game addiction
The thumbnail looks fresh af Hamza
Man thank God I've never had social media because besides RUclips.
Thank you truly for this talk👥
I think a big thing when I deleted most of my socials was that, like you said, I needed/need to rebalance the scale which has been so unevenly tipped into the favor of social interaction online rather in person. The only thing is most people are people who, off first impressions, don't care a whole lot for their future, and neither their mental health. Me personally I'm a Christian so I have to be disconnected from everything degenerate or disliked in the eyes of God, so making friends or just having social interactions with anyone who fits this strict criteria is so hard. Especially at this time in my life. I have a good bunch of friends, only I don't see them too often compared to the many other people I see. I thank you though Hamza, you are one of the reasons I started thinking more open mindedly, and made me have some humility. I wrote down and noted a lot of the advice, and find it to be very useful.
The only thing I really got to get down is meditation which I understand is a big thing you endorse. But I'll do it for a bit.
The legend harbonator blessing us with a finely edited vid once again. 🙏
Yes sir
@@SamHarborneUncut doing the lord's work, your streams are jokes too btw haha
hamza, you are a king.
This video was like a meditation
I have to say meditiation > social media
hamza is like andrew tate but actually helping young people
Fax
Not even comparable to that foul
comparing hamza to tate is illegal, tate is evil, hamza is an angel
@@piratesinmypantswhy is he evil?
@@piratesinmypants ❤ im evil
Thanks Hamza for this, this made me reminisce of the good times I had with my friends in person I will try to stay away from social media and be more active. You are a life changing man or more of a legend.
The edit on this video is insane.... Keep up the work hamza.. 👋
I'll be honest with you - I wasn't with Hamza on the topic of social media... until yesterday
Some context - I've structured my social media in a way where it's genuinely productive. I have literally unfollowed (or muted) every single personal account. Instead, I have started following a bunch of the people that I look up to, and a bunch of the people those people look up to. And you know what? It worked - every singe time I opened IG, I learned something new and useful. I wouldn't feel a compulsion to keep opening the app over and over either.
Until yesterday...
I was never that huge into shorts. I simply dislike the whole concept, and I value my attention span, so I avoided them like the plague. But yesterday, I was tired - like, really tired. Been working on my business the whole day, and my brain was too fried to do anything productive. So I decided to check out IG shorts.
I have never felt so depressed, and inadequate - I've been lifting weights consistently for 10 years. I've stepped foot in a gym for the first time when I was 16, and I'm 26 now. But, when I opened shorts, I saw this one guy - he was 20, and completely stunted on my physique in every single way.
Ok... I guess it's just a fluke - steroid use is rampant amongst Instagram mode.... another guy, exactly the same. And another one. And another one.
I couldn't stop scrolling, and with each scroll, my work of 10 years kept getting invalidated. Everything I have piushed so hard for, instantly dismantled by some dude that has been lifting weights for 2 years and claims natural.
I deleted instagram. I hate that platform with a passion.
I sure am glad RUclips isn’t social media!
…right?
Yap not like those insta,fb shit even though the shorts thing kinda make it but still wayyyy better than those social media
At the start of this summer I used alot of social media. After about 3 of your videos i have deleted them. I feel much better. Thank you Hamza
Thanks to hamza and my will i only have discord and yt out of all social media
Bro's thumbnails just get better and better
Hamza you should read Siddharta, I think theres kinda a paralellism between his story and yours. You would enjoy it! Greeting from Uruguay!

social media is irrelevant
man all the words you just said are 100% true. I literally am experiencing the same thing. Spending time on Social media gives us a false feeling that we are connected but we aren't. The problem is without social media, you will feel a need to go out and meet people in person . But social media fulfills this feeling virtually which is not real and you just get this sense of satisfaction for that moment. But the moment you shut you phone you realize how lonely you truly are.
Bro... The thumbnail is just epic 👍😻👍🔥
You made it son
its also the best way to forget about your issues
This video made me smile
The thumbnail just inspired me to draw again. Thanks mate
I’m 17 now but i have a memory of my 15th birthday, i stayed up until midnight and the second it turned 00:00 i had an instant message from my friend wishing me happy birthday. Normally this would make me happy but we went to the same school. They we’re going to see me in less than 9 hours, i still appreciate it but I couldn’t help but think they waited just to get it out the way. If they’d waited to do it in person it would feel 10X meaningful. I’m trying to improve socially but it’s got worse, i had 2 wishes recently (besides family) and the person i would once considered my best friend was belated by 10 days (not the same person) i’m not sad just bummed it’s become so clear to me how little most people care how they act so automated to avoid inconvenience towards them, this is an issue we all need to work on even myself, but the best way we have is to remove social media, to make actual connections with actual people instead of having 500 followers (“friends”) that hold you accountable and care for you.
10:50 hamza referencing The Way of Men. Nice love that book.
"The way of men is the way of the gang"
Months?! Some men it's years! Great video brother!
Just turning off notifications and getting off multiple social media apps does for your mental health what expensive therapy probably does.
Great vid bro! 10th of June club reporting in 🙏
Thank you Hamza
Needed this bro 💯🤦♂️
I never even bothered with social media. Always found it a waste of time.
I agree with this. lately I got distracted by these new friends in a gc for school like they keep on talking alot on social media and I realized I get distracted if I mind it too much.
Hamza really bro take care I saw what happened to tate I don't want you to go please bro let us know you'll be here for us
It's true that you NEED social connections.
I had a long streak of nofap when I was very social but the moment I focused on social media and got the whole "I don't need anyone" mentality, I felt blank and failed.
A year later, I'm social af again at College and now I have a good streak after a long time. Not even counting anymore.
SNEAKO SQUASHED IT! YAY!
Thanks hamza.
Needed this video more than ever.
Those thumbnail grafics are beautiful
Yes I agree- I found out that social media (particularry Instagram) sent me on e-mail messages like „See this and that friend’s post”.
I can’t find people who are really into self improving and becoming the best version of themselves, all my surroundings are just emerged in social media, i feel like their brain cells are dead and can’t think, they only talk about people, parties and and memes which is super boring, they can’t see the world in the grand scheme, they don’t understand that all this is just a facade that we need to overcome i feel lonely.
