00:00Well, what if there was another option where you could hang out with your friends and also
00:05feel energized and refreshed the next day so you could keep being productive?
00:10That would be amazing, right?
00:12Well, let me tell you about another term that you may have seen online called JOMO.
00:17JOMO is basically the opposite of FOMO.
00:20JOMO stands for joy of missing out.
00:22And the basic idea is that sometimes staying in and doing your own thing is actually more
00:27enjoyable than going out and hanging out with your friends.
00:30It's not about missing out per se.
00:33It's about enjoying the present moment.
00:35It's about being content with the present moment.
00:38Imagine this scenario.
00:40Your friends are all going out to party, but you decide to stay in and watch Netflix.
00:44Instead of feeling anxious or worried that you're missing out, you accept that you'd
00:48rather stay in and watch Netflix.
00:50And instead of scrolling through social media to see what your friends are up to, you focus
00:55on enjoying your own company and the show that you're watching.
00:58Maybe you make some popcorn.
00:59Maybe you get some snacks and you just relax and enjoy your own company.
