Power in Privacy

In a world filled with social media fanatics who share every waking moment of their day all over social media… there’s power in privacy.

Dare to be private.

A happy life is a private life.

Date, in private.
Love, in private.
Be happy, in private.
Live, in private.
That way, you can take your losses, in private.
Maintain yourself, in private.
Rebuild yourself, in private.

To be private in a world filled with social media junkies is to be a rare gem that nobody knows how to handle.

Private people don’t care to participate in the social media frenzy that so many people obsess over. They don’t post fifty thousand videos and stories on their Instagram every day, selfies of their workouts, meals, marriage or even lives of their kids.

They don’t need shares, likes, retweets, or hearts.

They don’t need the social media validation that others crave.

Private people crave the opportunity to keep their mind progressing forward, an opportunity to stay focused, grounded, and get things done. Those who choose to be private have small, intentional circles – they are careful, and more selective with the people they share their energy and ideas with.

No one will be more loyal, faithful, and compassionate than a private person – they look for a very specific person to trust and they will always maintain the value of your relationship.

Private people don’t need the social validation that social media has trained us to go after, to crave, or to seek out. They are, essentially, happy and secure with who they are.

They don’t try to fit in with the crowd or be someone – they are content, intentional, and have mastered their own emotional energy.

And unlike the rest of the world who spends copious amounts of time on social media, they are careful with their time. Their commitments are priority, and nothing distracts them from their daily goals.

Private people care about their time – and spending time with someone is a rather big choice that they make. If they deem you worthy of their time and attention, don’t take that for granted.

Not only will you get their time, attention and energy, you will get a friendship or relationship full of care and compassion.

If you have the pleasure of being around someone private, you’ll find their energy on a whole different level.

Perhaps that’s because private people are easy to be with – they care more about their own stability in lieu of following the latest trends.

They live by the beat of their own drum. 

And I can’t think of anything more attractive than that.
