But as technology grows and develops, we can now hardly differentiate our private life, work life and this instant messaging-life. The writer explains about how to manage ourselves efficiently so that we can still take care of our private and work life, without being inactive in the social networking life, or vice versa.

It is important to have a direct and face-to-face communication instead of doing it via messenger, and it would be better if we are a good multi-tasker, so we can still keep up with both work, private, and social life.
