gen_narcissists

>> it glorifies someone showing off what they are doing.

Yes. You, Sir, are EXACTLY Right. I think it's called Narcissism, and there's plenty of that going around with this Generation obsessed with Instagram (taking #selfies and posting it for the whole world to see), Facebook (showing off how awesome their fake life is) etc.

Are you serious? I come from a Generation that fought for the Freedom your generation takes for granted. We never complained or showed off to everyone how "awesome" we were. We just "DID". Silently, quietly and without any expectation of fame or fortune.

Recording, editing and posting the video takes as much (if not more time) than the activity. No?

No. You are missing the point. I can see people signing up to DO, say, Learning to Play Ocarina -- https://giveit100.com/@LylyB -- and then OBSESSING with making the Giveit100 Video for the day more than actually LEARNING to Play by DO-ing!

Why is this generation so obsessed with "documenting" everything instead of actually "doing"?

STOP Documenting. START DO-ing!
