UNPLUG: Break Free From Social Media Addiction And Procrastination

The False Productivity Trap Social Media Creates for Men in Their 20s

Listen Later

In this episode of UNPLUG, we uncover the hidden pitfalls of social media’s productivity hype and how it tricks young men into believing they're accomplishing more than they actually are. With countless posts promoting hustle culture and “success hacks,” it’s easy to get caught in a cycle of empty productivity, losing sight of personal progress. We break down three key ways social media derails real productivity:

  • Hustle Pressure – Constantly comparing oneself to online portrayals of success leads to guilt and burnout.
  • Distractions Disguised as Multitasking – The endless stream of information and notifications disrupts focus, making deep work nearly impossible.
  • Pseudo-Productivity Through Engagement – Interacting with “productivity” content feels rewarding but often leaves personal goals untouched.

    • Tune in to understand how to break free from these traps and refocus on what truly matters for meaningful productivity and personal growth.

    We release a new episode every Tuesdays and Fridays at 7 AM EST!
