IMPROVING
YOURSELF
Mostly “a”
You are the captain of self-control, the ruler of self-regulation! Not only are you conscientious and in control of your emotions, it also seems you can resist temptation. Be careful not to take everything so seriously though. Try to relax more and once in a while, do something impulsive.
Mostly “b”
Hmm… whilst you seem to have grasped the basics of self-management, there is still room for improvement! Take a step back and think about how you could be more focused on your goals and gain more control of your emotions.
Mostly “c”
Far from being in control, it seems your emotional impulses and temptations are controlling you! Don’t just sit back and let things happen. Assess and find out what’s going wrong and draw up a plan of action. Try to stick with it!

On average, Chinese Internet users each spend two hours a day on social media: a total of 730 hours each year.
The average age of social media users in China in 2017 was 33.1 years old, as against 32.4 in 2016 and 31.2 in 2015.
The top four negative aspects of social media as ranked by Chinese users are: reduced time for reading printed books, poorer eyesight, privacy and information security concerns, and reduced sleep time.

On average, Chinese Internet users each spend two hours a day on social media: a total of 730 hours each year.
The average age of social media users in China in 2017 was 33.1 years old, as against 32.4 in 2016 and 31.2 in 2015.
The top four negative aspects of social media as ranked by Chinese users are: reduced time for reading printed books, poorer eyesight, privacy and information security concerns, and reduced sleep time.
We can infer from the facts that Chinese Internet users spend a lot of time on social media, negatively affecting different aspects of their lives, and that the average age of social media users in China has risen during recent years.
