If you want to overcome "FOMO", read this:
We all have probably been there at some point in our life,
Where we feel like we are lagging behind,
Like we are losing something we shouldn't,
Like we should be doing something we aren't,
Like we are simply not enough already.
Where we feel like we are lagging behind,
Like we are losing something we shouldn't,
Like we should be doing something we aren't,
Like we are simply not enough already.
And this "FEAR" makes us:
- Anxious
- Vulnerable
- Desperate to act
- Think irrationally
- More prone to take the wrong step
So, here are 10 ways to beat FOMO for good:

So, here are 10 ways to beat FOMO for good:
Control your attention
Garbage in, garbage out.
If you are endlessly scrolling your Instagram feed, where people pretend to showcase their perfect life, you are bound to feel FOMO.
Limit your social media intake.
Go out in nature more.

Maintain a gratitude journal
Make this a habit:
Every day, write down at least 3 things you are grateful for.
Once you see how kind life has been to you,
The abundant mentality you imbibe crushes the hell out of FOMO.

Decide your values in life
Life's too short to give too many f*cks.
So you better decide the things that are important enough for you to give a sh*t about you,
Otherwise, you'd just keep wandering here and there in life without getting anything substantial done.

Acknowledge your own journey
We have a sh*tty memory.
So, whenever you feel like going down because of FOMO,
Just remember where you came from and be grateful for it.
Instead of always looking over the other side of the fence.

Acknowledge that you can't have it all
No guys, you just can't.
That's the bitter truth of life.
And in all honesty, it's the "incompleteness" that makes life full.
If you had everything you wanted, life would be rather dull and monotonous.
Cherish what you have.

Nobody knows a goddamn thing
The person who's giving you FOMO is probably acting out of FOMO by someone else.
And this chain is pretty damn long.
At the end of the day, we are just an advanced breed of monkeys with complex thoughts.
So relax, take a deep breath.

Life's not a race
If you consider life to be a race, you will never be happy or peaceful.
As there always will be someone better, smarter, richer, more intelligent than you.
You will never feel "enough" with what you have.
Look at life as a journey and enjoy every second.

Write it down
Whenever FOMO bothers you,
Take a pen and a paper and write down your thoughts.
You'd realize that FOMO is just a symptom of an even bigger cause.
Once you find the cause, that's when you can uproot the whole issue altogether.

Do your best
Once you truly know it in your heart that you are putting in your every last ounce of blood, sweat, and tear in whatever you do,
You stop caring about what others are doing.
People tend to fall for FOMO only when they are unhappy with where they are in life.

Ask questions
Whenever you are bogged down by FOMO,
Ask some meaningful questions to yourself:
"Why am I getting bothered?"
"What would happen if I rashly act on the impulse?"
"Does the person giving me FOMO knows any better?"
"Will I be proud of myself if I succumb to FOMO?"
