Have you ever felt uneasy just because your phone wasn’t nearby? As if you were missing out on something? That’s FOMO – the “fear of missing out.”

FOMO pushes us to constantly check our phones, scroll through social media, and compare ourselves to others. But most of what we see online is filtered perfection. And this often leads to dissatisfaction with our own lives.

Technology gives us access to the world—but it can also take our focus, peace of mind, and ability to live in the moment. To fight FOMO, it helps to schedule tech-free time, limit social media use, and reconnect with your own reality.

Life is not online—it’s here and now.
