Are you a movie addict who habitually watches old and new movies repeatedly? Do you know the movie dialogues by heart? Do showbiz and media culture fascinate you big time?Regardless of age, we all love nostalgia sometimes and watch movies to cherish old memories. Positive media memories can associate with our key values and relate to our life experiences. You can learn from the characters and cast and experience their strong emotions. Watching movies can also uplift your mood in the crisis-filled COVID-19 pandemic days.
Psychologists reveal that too much entertainment creates a bad impact on your mind by slowing your brainwaves and turning you into a passive person. Watching too many movies waste time and keeps you unfocused on vital tasks to advance your career.
Here is why you should quit watching time-wasting movies or TV shows on Netflix that keep you from cultivating big results in your career.
1.Movies Directly Oppose what you want to Accomplish in Career
Unless you watch top motivational movies such as “Pursuit of Happiness” or “Homeless to Harvard”, Netflix addiction can seriously hinder your life and career goals. You can keep watching the entire season at once on Netflix by sitting for 10 hours in front of a TV screen. That keeps young students from devoting time to their studies and takes away their valuable energy. Therefore, watching too many movies with no purpose or motivational lesson is bad for both your mental and physical health.
2.Time Waster Never Comes Back
As the great Steve Jobs states, “time is our most valuable resource”. How many times do you watch movies just because they are free on YouTube and make you laugh? The downside of YouTube is that once you are done watching a good movie, it suggests you a dozen other bad movies to waste your time on. Every second is precious in life and time lost never comes back. So decide today whether makes sense to waste your life on movies filled with depression, violence, or sex.
3.Quitting Netflix can Help you Improve your Career
Young people often don’t realize how much their lifestyle, conversation, or even clothing depends on pop culture. They seem to blindly fall in love with celebrities’ makeup and fashion; instead of reading self-help books, they learn to gossip like celebrities and don’t develop communication skills to propel their careers in the right direction.
The bottom line is, instead of talking about a new celebrity shoe brand or how a murder scene inspired you, watch motivational movies to help you talk about success, challenges, and hardships that await you in future life.
4. One Good Movie can Change your Life
Yeah, that’s a golden fact; you can easily destroy your life by watching time-wasting movies or improve your life in weeks by watching a positive mind-changing movie. That all depends on you and how you choose to spend your precious time. I encourage you in any age to watch motivational movies; I promise you will enjoy learning from other’s life struggles and stories and also motivate you to do good things in life.
