Don&#8217;t spend all the day on it }} <\/p>\n<p>Facebook is a fun platform and possibly addictive, but spending time meant for something else on Facebook isn\u2019t really a wise decision. Try to do more with your time, and if you\u2019re interested in meeting people, one on one interaction is usually the best.<\/p>\n<p>Do not spend your whole day on Facebook. Be more productive<\/p>\n<p>{{2. Brag }} <\/p>\n<p>Some people go to Facebook mainly to show off; many of their updates aim to brag about certain things going on in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Some even brag in an indirect way; for example, \u201cI don\u2019t know which to wear today \u2014 my $19,000 Gucci shoe or my $21,000 Louis Vuitton shoe.\u201d That\u2019s an indirect way of bragging, and it really shouldn\u2019t be done on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>{{3. Don&#8217;t compare or condemn yourself }} <\/p>\n<p>One thing a lot of people do is condemn or compare themselves to others on Facebook. Don\u2019t let the edited and photoshopped pictures of people make you condemn yourself, don\u2019t get carried with other people\u2019s update to the extent of making yourself feel terrible. Facebook is a platform mainly for contact and interaction with friends and family and also meeting new people \u2014 don\u2019t beat yourself up for no reason.<\/p>\n<p>{{4. Don&#8217;t live your life on Facebook }} <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s amazing that some people live their life on Facebook; every quarrel with their spouse, everything that they do is well documented on Facebook. Even though Facebook is a platform for sharing your life, it should never get too personal.<\/p>\n<p>{{5. Don&#8217;t get into unnecessary arguments }} <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to pick up a quarrel over issues like politics, sports, religion, tribe, race and a whole lot of things on Facebook, but never get into unnecessary and childish arguments to prove a point \u2014 it\u2019s never worth it.<\/p>\n<p>{{6. Don&#8217;t be fake }} <\/p>\n<p>Truth be told, there are a lot of fake people on Facebook; people try to be impressive on Facebook that they become so fake \u2014 from their updates, pictures and everything, there is nothing original.<\/p>\n<p>Many people can\u2019t post up natural photos of themselves anymore, many pretend to own cars and houses which aren\u2019t theirs, many only post edited photos. Don\u2019t join the trend; be original, it might not fetch you many friends, but you would get real friends.<\/p>\n<p>These are typical cases found on Facebook on a regular basis; but don\u2019t be a part of this trend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{Facebook is one of the go-to social media for everyone; it\u2019s a good platform for reuniting with old friends, meeting new friends and keeping in touch with family, friends and colleagues.} Inasmuch as Facebook is an extraordinary platform for sharing our lives with people who matter, there are certain things people do on Facebook that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[75],"byline":[2483],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-29147","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-people","tag-homenews","byline-elcrema"],"bylines":[{"id":2483,"name":"ELCREMA","slug":"elcrema","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":null}],"contributors":[{"id":2483,"name":"ELCREMA","slug":"elcrema","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":null}],"featured_image":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29147"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29147\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29147"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=29147"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=29147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
