When You Meet A LinkedIn Lunatic

---

Hello There! Lets connect! 👍

Today I cried — I was heading out to work and my little one gave me a sticker 😭

My kid gave me a sticker. I asked why. 🧐

She said, “Because you’re nice.” 🙌️

In a world chasing performance, a sticker still matters. 👏

Agree?

Earlier in the morning, I had a disaster in the toilet. I finished but there was single square left on the paper roll.

You would scream for help, but me? — I posted right from the seat!

I don’t usually post here but the last piece of toilet paper taught me mindfulness today! 🧘

Your thoughts? 🙏

Blew up with “Truly Insightful!” comments.
Just a few 🤣 reactions— must be Redditors, living in their mom’s basement.

Later in the office, I was feeling sleepy after lunch.

Damn! must be the 5 AM alarm. I am not a morning person but every high performer I follow does it so did I.

Half awake, I spilled warm lemon water on my dog. He barked but I learned a B2B sales principle — even a cold lead reacts when you apply heat 🤝 ✌️

Nevertheless…

I ended up paying the price for sleepiness:

• Commented “Thanks for sharing!” on my own post without switching the account 😬

• Reacted ❤️ to Ken Cheng’s post — it resonated, you know… but it was a satire 🙄

Anyways…

I decided to leave early today — after reading “How I left corporate world to follow my passion” post from a Top Voice | Lifelong Learner | Fractional Coach.

Jokes Apart…

We’ve all got a little LinkedIn in us.
Whether it’s the performative optimism, the craving for connection, or the occasional overshare that turns a burnt toast into a strategic insight — maybe it’s not all bad.

LinkedIn Lunacy isn’t a personality. Its a phase — on the way to growth.

Maybe we’re all just trying to make meaning out of the mundane.
And its beautiful.

There is no shame in liking our own posts — for visibility, of course.
Just no more than 3 emojis at once. I beg you.
