Twitter has changed my life in so many ways, and it& #39;s because I use this tool the right way. Here is how.

1: Ignore Twitter& #39;s follow recommendations.

Don& #39;t blindly follow people. Instead, look at their latest tweets. See what they& #39;ve pinned. Read a few of their replies to other people.

Only follow people who add value to your life.
2: Don& #39;t follow-for-follow.

If you unfollow people because they don& #39;t follow you, then you& #39;re wasting your time and energy. Twitter isn& #39;t some status symbol.
3: Unfollow people who clutter up your timeline with hate.

Your timeline is more important than you think. If it& #39;s bombarded with hate, that& #39;s KILLING your enjoyment of Twitter.

And, it& #39;s probably also making you an unhappy person.

Unfollow hate.
4: Use lists.

Organize those whom you follow into lists.

For example, you might have a list for:

- Money
- Fitness
- Mindset
- Travel

Lists help you focus on the content that you& #39;re motivated to engage with at any given time.

And, this leads me to my next point.
5: Engage with profiles that you like.

Don& #39;t just read and like. Comment. Retweet.

Engagement is what makes Twitter so much fun to use. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👊" title="Fisted hand" aria-label="Emoji: Fisted hand">

Consider DMing accounts you love the most. Tell them how much you enjoy their tweets.

Share the love.
6: Ignore or block trending topics.

Trending topics add no positive value.

Either ignore them or use a browser plugin (such as https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hide-twitter-trends/lapmncfnibdclongbkleadoicnkhknia?hl=en)">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/... to remove that section from Twitter& #39;s interface.

Here is what my "Trending topics" area looks like.
7: Stop arguing.

Even if you "win", arguing on social media is pathetic.

It& #39;s not your job, or mine, to change people& #39;s minds. So, stop trying.
