Continuing from where we left off, we took a look at who is providing inspiration in our daily lives that is around us all the time. If you haven't already read part 1, please do so here.
While it is true that who we surround ourselves with has a profound impact, there is another set of individuals that also play a huge part: Those in the media such as music artists, influencers on the various sites that are used today, actors and actresses, etc.
Let's face it, this world has become monopolized by technology. There is hardly an individual today that does not have at least one device which can plug into the internet. Thus, there's heavy interaction and competition with search engine optimization or a strong desire to become famous for a few hours or more due to being the next viral video.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to how far reaching technology is today. This also allows for media to touch lives in ways that people could only dream about a few decades ago.
Due to the endless possibilities, media has influenced what we wear, how we speak to one another, what songs catch on among various groups, what we spend our time playing, and how we value our interactions and time with one another.
So, for my next challenge, I invite you to ask yourself the following:
- What media is influencing me today?
- What media influence in the past has created a milestone or breakthrough that I still carry with me to this day?
Comment below to share one of your media influences whether from the past or currently.
