Studies have shown that the more we use social media, the less happy we seem to be. Social media may lead us to think we’re social, but in reality, it can make us more anti-social, since we spend our time sitting and scrolling instead of getting up and engaging. Well, since social media is part of our everyday lives, HappyTask wants to change that! We want to put the social back into social media. HappyTask is about getting up and doing something - actual tasks. We want to make the world happier by getting people to participate in activities and feel a certain amount of happiness and pride afterward. Let’s use social media in a positive way, and share what activities make us and others happy... It feels good to do something positive and to give back! Let’s live in a world that feeds off of humility and love.
