Share Only The Stuff You Genuinely Care About<\/h3>\n<p>Okay, so you\u2019re a thousand percent positive that you have no creative inclinations whatsoever. That\u2019s okay.You can still <strong>support the creative work of others<\/strong> by sharing these works on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/social-media-junkies-wallpaper\/\">social media<\/a>. Better yet, buy a piece from these creators, and let them know that their efforts are much appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>Also, <strong>it helps plenty when you\u2019re genuinely interested in the stuff you share on social media<\/strong> \u2013 rather than just sharing for the sake of gaining attention. After all, social media sites have enough \u201cnoise\u201d as it is.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/create-viral-content\/\">Top Tips & Resources To Creating Content People Want To Share<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>3. Reach Out To Other Online Creators<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Creativity doesn\u2019t happen in a vacuum<\/strong>. Sure, you\u2019re ultimately the best judge of your own work, but how will you know whether your work needs improvement if you don\u2019t have another set of fresh, objective eyes to evaluate it?<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can contact a creator you\u2019ve always admired via social media, and pick their brains regarding things that bother you about your work.<\/strong> Don\u2019t feel intimidated about this; most creators are friendly and willing to answer questions. Just make sure your questions are politely phrased, and that they can\u2019t be answered by a simple Google search.<\/p>\n<p class=\"recommended_top\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Read Also:<\/strong>\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/asking-busy-people-for-favors\/\">How to Get Buzy People to Answer You<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h3>4. Be An Activist, Not A Slacktivist<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s one thing to share a post about impoverished children, and leave it at that. It\u2019s another to share that same post, get out of your house, and hand out a crisp bill to an organization that helps impoverished children.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One of these serves the cause better, and it doesn\u2019t take a genius to figure out which<\/strong>. Make this the year that you take that action.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/facebook-facts\/\">Be A Savvy Facebooker (Don\u2019t Do These 20 Things)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>5. Defend The Cyberbullied<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that <strong>trolls and other nasty people lurk in forums, comments sections, and other online places<\/strong> where open discussions are encouraged. These people often make it difficult \u2013 or even dangerous \u2013 for newbies to even think about venturing into their waters.<\/p>\n<p>If you see them verbally tearing someone apart for no good reason, don\u2019t just sit back and watch from the sidelines. <strong>Stand up for whoever\u2019s getting bullied<\/strong>, and let it be known that the Internet isn\u2019t as nasty a place as overly vocal trolls often make it out to be.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/minimize-online-harassment\/\">How To Not Be A Troll Magnet<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>6. Avoid Trolling Comments Sections<\/h3>\n<p>On the flip side, you might be a troll yourself. (If not, that\u2019s good; you can skip this section.) In that case, I only have three words for you: <strong>Stop. Right. Now.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No matter how bad your day gets, or what\u2019s going on in your life at the moment, <strong>don\u2019t take it out on someone else<\/strong>. Take it out on a video game boss, take it out on an old piece of paper, but don\u2019t take it out on a virtual, faceless stranger who doesn\u2019t know any better. For all you know, that stranger could be going through a bad day too, just like you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/tech-addiction\/\">How Tech Addiction Is Changing Human Behaviour<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>7. Dish Out Negative Criticism Only When Necessary<\/h3>\n<p>As much as we all wish otherwise, not every creator on the Internet has an abundant amount of talent flowing through their fingertips. If you see a creative work that is\u2026 less than satisfactory, let the creator know (in a nice way).<\/p>\n<p>Also, <strong>be sure to explain <em>why <\/em>you think the work isn\u2019t up to par<\/strong>. You don\u2019t want to come across as a juvenile hater who leaves comments like \u201cU SUCK\u201d without an explanation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/give-constructive-criticism\/\">How To Give Constructive Criticism<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>8. Be More Creative With Your \u201cWitticisms\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Internet memes might get old, but not human creativity. <strong>Get into the habit of thinking through every comment you make<\/strong> before repurposing yet another \u201carrow to the knee\u201d joke. Fresh, creative, and well-thought-out posts are always the most memorable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/stories-behind-memes\/\">The Story Behind The Internet\u2019s 10 Favorite Memes<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>9. Learn Something About Everything<\/h3>\n<p>To be clear, you don\u2019t need to be an <em>expert<\/em> on everything under the sun. Even if you have a monstrously high IQ, there\u2019s only so much knowledge you can store in your head at any one time, in a single lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>However, <strong>it does help to know the basics of things people often talk about<\/strong>.

Be Your Own Brand Of Awesome!<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019ll probably risk contradicting everything I\u2019ve said so far, but I\u2019ll say this anyway: <strong>Don\u2019t let anyone else tell you how to be awesome<\/strong>. The things I listed here are guidelines, not absolute rules. You\u2019re the only one who knows your strengths, your weaknesses, and how you can harness these strengths and weaknesses to become awesome on your own terms.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also good to realize that there\u2019s more to life than the Internet. Even if you\u2019re an Internet junkie, it won\u2019t do to just coop yourself up at home and stay in front of the computer all day.<strong> Explore the world outside, take down notes, and post what you\u2019ve learned on the Internet for the betterment of everyone<\/strong> \u2013 just like the awesome netizens who came before you.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cAwesome\u201d is a rather overused word nowadays \u2013 especially on the World Wide Web.
