IAMDRIVENFORSUCCESS: Social Networking or Social Exposure

Social Networking or Social Exposure

Good evening,

This message just dawned on me out of the blue to write so I just sit down and begin to write freely. This past week we discussed the impact of social networking in our society today but also the questioned was posed if it would be beneficial in the work place. There are millions of people on social networking sites all over the world however social networking can expose you if it is used wrong. Yes I know it’s your own personal site and you can say whatever you please and this is very true. Have you ever taken the time to sit down and realize how many people have access to these sites? From the things you say and the pictures you post are things that reflect back to you. Who is the same that the job interview you went on today is going to look you up on facebook? Who’s to say the next major referral in your life that could be key to your success may come from twitter? So you have to beware of what image that you are putting out there of yourself. One of the most important things I do believe is overlooked is that fact of the amount of kids on these sites as well. Some of which who make look up to you , follow you, and etc so the very thing you are doing or saying maybe influencing some young mind in either a negative or positive way. The bible says, “so my word that goes out of my mouth: It will not return empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it (Isaiah 55:11).” Also the sites are public sites and there is way to much time spending arguing, fighting, and etc in front of hundreds of people and all done for what? Your business should be your privacy if you have an issue with some then that issue should be handled between you and that individual instead of you, that person, and facebook(twitter) Matthew 18:15 “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone.” Come we have to be more responsible then that and more aware of those who may be watching. Don’t allow social media to give you so much power that you forget where you stand and how to handle things properly.

Quote: It’s all about maturity and the ability to be aware of the truth. The truth is that many people watch and listen whether you know it or now. Its just human nature. Make sure you wise in the way you want to be perceived. ~d.taylor
