How to Facebook Bio

A wide range of interesting prompts to liven up your Facebook bio

You’re updating your Facebook profile (or making a new one), but what should you write for a Facebook bio? If you’re stumped, no worries: we can help! There are plenty of ways to write a fun and compelling Facebook bio depending on your interests, career, and what you want to say. From short and snappy bios to flowery and aesthetically pleasing ones, we’re here to show you how to write your own Facebook bio with expert advice from Social Media Manager Beth Cormack (and plenty of examples if you need inspiration).

Steps

Short Facebook Bios

  1. Catch people’s interest with a short, snappy bio. When you have a simple and concise Facebook bio, it’s easier for people who find your bio to comprehend. The bio itself will look more readable overall—and the information in your bio will be more digestible! For example:[1]
    Facebook Bio Step 1.jpg
    • Seeking new horizons.
    • Finding my zest for life.
    • Just enjoying the journey.
    • You get what you give.
    • Dream, achieve, and thrive.
    • Make every day count!
    • Finding joy in every moment.
    • Choosing happiness each day.
    • Positive vibes only! ✌️
    • Dream big, dream on.
    • Travel, explore, discover. ✈️
    • Work hard and play harder.
    • Live, laugh, love, and learn.
    • Nothing is impossible.
    • Forever young at heart. 馃挆
    • Embracing the chaos. 馃槑
    • Writing my story one day at a time. 馃枈️
    • Making dreams into reality.
    • Tip: Social media expert Beth Cormack recommends treating your Facebook bio as an elevator pitch. “Keep it short and sweet, focusing on the most impactful things about either yourself or as a brand.”[2]

Aesthetic Facebook Bios

  1. Show off your magnetic personality with a stylish, poetic bio. “Since the bio is supposed to be short, you want to make sure you’re showing off your personality,” explains Cormack.[3] Hint at any quirky or special traits you’re proud of (which can make your bio more memorable), and pair an emoji or two with your bio to create aesthetic appeal.
    Facebook Bio Step 2.jpg
    • Living in style. 馃尮
    • Forever a techie. 馃捇
    • Words are power. 馃摐
    • Always a geek, always chic. 馃
    • Student of life, always learning.
    • Living in color. 馃帹
    • Sunset chaser. 馃寘
    • Spreading love and positivity. 馃拰
    • Shining in my own way. ⭐
    • ✨ Starry-eyed dreamer ✨
    • Just savoring the universe’s positive vibes. 馃尯
    • The goal is progress, nor perfection. 馃憦
    • Laughing hard and living in the moment. 馃槅
    • Explorer, ready for takeoff. 馃洬
    • Tip: Emojis and symbols can break up the text in your bio, making it more colorful and aesthetically pleasing to readers. Just remember to use a couple of them at most—no need for long strings of emojis!

Funny Facebook Bios

  1. Crack a joke in your bio to demonstrate your witty sense of humor. Humor can definitely make your bio pop compared to others, and it’s a great way to add a dash of personality to the text. Plus, did you know laughter can actually lower stress?[4] Ensure your jokes are appropriate for all audiences and ideally relevant to who you are (or your brand if you’re trying to advertise a business).
    Facebook Bio Step 3.jpg
    • Cool bio, right?
    • Coffee may not solve my problems, but it's worth a shot. ☕
    • New bio. Who’s this?
    • I’m sorry for what I said when I was hungry. 馃崟
    • Brb, I’m overthinking. 馃
    • Is this thing on?
    • Recommended by 8 out of 10 people.
    • Microwave chef extraordinaire!
    • Aspiring sloth and napping enthusiast. 馃挙
    • Former baby and aspiring adult. 馃嵓
    • In a world full of trends, I remain a classic!
    • Giving mediocre advice since 1997.
    • I’m not anti-social…I’m selectively social.
    • Professional pun-slinger. 馃敨
    • You miss 100% of the dogs you don’t pet. 馃惗
    • Tip: Ensure you have an eye-catching profile picture and cover photo. They’re usually the first things people see, even before your bio—so make them clear, high-quality, and relevant to who you are as a person!

Sassy Facebook Bios

  1. Give people a sense of your overall attitude and vibe in your bio. Want people to know you’re a confident, fierce, and outspoken person? Create a Facebook bio that reflects your bold personality.[5] The bio shouldn’t be too harsh or negative, of course, but you can definitely put a little attitude into it so long as it’s a personal bio (rather than a professional one).
    Facebook Bio Step 4.jpg
    • Attitude: Not your average cup of tea.
    • I’m infected with awesome, and there’s no cure.
    • Judge me, and I’ll prove you wrong.
    • Unapologetically fabulous.
    • Slaying with attitude.
    • Attitude is my middle name.
    • Not perfect, but definitely unique.
    • Follow me if you’re okay with being second!
    • Queen (or king) of my own castle.
    • Daring to be different.
    • Silent but deadly.
    • Fluent in sarcasm and sass.
    • Just keeping it real.
    • They said I couldn’t, so I did. ✅
    • There’s no competition because nobody can be me.
    • Living life one sarcastic quip at a time,
    • Classy with a hint of savage.

Romantic Facebook Bios

  1. Give your significant other a heartfelt shout-out in your bio. If you’re writing a bio for your personal Facebook page and you’re really feeling the love, why not add a sweet, sappy message to it? You could reference your partner (if you have one), especially if you’re about to celebrate a special occasion with them, like a wedding or anniversary.
    Facebook Bio Step 5.jpg
    • Life is always beautiful with love in you heart.
    • Love is magic. 馃獎
    • Happily exploring life, hand in hand. 馃
    • Soulmates for life.
    • Learning how to love more every day.
    • Two hearts, one journey. 馃挒
    • My heart is always full of love. 馃拰
    • Lucky and deeply in love.
    • Finding love in the most unexpected places.
    • All you need is love. 馃幎
    • My heart beats for you, always.
    • In a world of possibilities, I choose you.
    • Love conquers all! ✊
    • Overjoyed to find my soulmate.
    • Love has found us.

One-Word Facebook Bios

  1. Come up with a single word that best encapsulates your personality. It doesn’t get any snappier than a one-word bio! If you prefer to be as concise as possible, a one-word bio on your Facebook page can definitely be equal parts mysterious and intriguing to people, making them more likely to explore your page further.
    Facebook Bio Step 6.jpg
    • Innovator
    • Cyclist 馃毑
    • Optimist ✨
    • Dreamer ⭐

    • Thinker 馃
    • Musician 馃幑
    • Crafty
    • Whimsical
    • Adventurer
    • Joyful 馃尭

Cute Facebook Bios

  1. Post a sweet and simple bio to give a charming first impression. Want your Facebook page to have a warm, friendly vibe for people who see it? Try adding a cute bio—a phrase with a positive, uplifting message designed to make readers smile. For example:
    Facebook Bio Step 7.jpg
    • Let’s find joy in the little things. 馃槉
    • A student of life. Always learning!

    • Life’s too short to hold back!
    • An old soul drifting through modern times. 馃挏

Travel & Adventure Facebook Bios

  1. Share your travel stories and love of discovery through your bio. If you’re someone who travels often and has a strong, adventurous spirit, your Facebook bio is an ideal place to show that side of yourself to others. You might even be able to connect with other people who share your passion through your bio!
    Facebook Bio Step 8.jpg
    • My mission is to make every day a new adventure.
    • Exploring the world, one country at a time. 馃實
    • When adventure calls, I follow in its wake.
    • Chasing all the different sights and sounds this world has to offer.

    • On a mission to see every wonder of the world!
    • I love inspiring others. Want to embrace your curiosity and see the world with me? 馃殫

Entrepreneurial Facebook Bios

  1. Tell people about your business (and can-do attitude) in a bio. Facebook can be a great place to network and establish connections with people—especially potential customers. So, if you’re an entrepreneur or freelancer and want to establish yourself on Facebook, craft a clear, concise bio that encourages people to contact you or explore your brand further.[6]
    Facebook Bio Step 9.jpg
    • Forging a legacy of visionary achievements, one step at a time.

    • Tip: Personal information (including your name, location, business name, or job title) is crucial for a professional Facebook bio. Be sure to include contact details as well, including a website link or email address.
    • Tip: While a career-oriented bio should still be brief, ensure it reflects your brand voice accurately—and who you are as a person. You have limited space, so make every word count!

Creative Facebook Bios

  1. Emphasize your artistic talents in your Facebook bio. Whether you’re a professional artist, an amateur, or use creativity in some other way for your work, use your Facebook bio to highlight that inner creativity. Show people you’re imaginative, clever, and unafraid to think outside the box! For example:
    Facebook Bio Step 10.jpg
    • Imagination is my compass; it guides me through life. 馃Л
    • Creativity is more than a talent; it’s a mindset.
    • There’s no limit to creativity except your own imagination.

    • Writer by trade, storyteller at heart.
    • Life without music would be utterly flat. 馃幖

Facebook Bios About Hobbies

  1. Build connections with people by mentioning your hobbies. Adding details about your interests, favorite activities, and hobbies can make your bio more personal and relatable. It also encourages people who read your bio to connect with you, either as friends or potentially professional connections.
    Facebook Bio Step 11.jpg
    • Books are my happy place. 馃摎
    • Can I call you back? I’m out snowboarding. 馃弬

    • Midnight snacker (and thinker). 馃崼
    • Solving every puzzle that comes my way. 馃З
    • Tip: Try using your Facebook bio to tell a story about yourself and your life thus far, rather than simply listing off facts.

Facebook Bios for Gamers

  1. Bring up your love of gaming (and aspirations as a gamer) in your bio. If you’re a gamer—either professionally or casually—you can use your Facebook bio to mention the type of gaming you usually do. Or, on the other hand, you could simply make a joke or clever quip about your love of games!
    Facebook Bio Step 12.jpg

    • If you need me, I’ll be playing video games.
    • Game lover and game-maker.
    • Gaming isn’t all button-mashing and leveling up; it connects us.
    • In my world, gaming is more than just a hobby. It’s a lifestyle!
    • Not just a gamer—also a game-changer!
    • Tip: According to Cormack, the best way to grow a following on social media is to “Find a niche that you’re an expert in and just focus on creating content around that.” So, for example, if gaming is your niche, let people know![7]

Sporty Facebook Bios

  1. Bring up your love of athletics, spots, and an active lifestyle. If you’re someone who loves sports (or exercise), include your favorite physical activities in your Facebook bio. That way, people who read your bio can find out if they have any shared interests with you!
    Facebook Bio Step 13.jpg
    • On a fitness and wellness journey.

    • Sporty chic. ⚽

    • Follow for workout motivation! Let’s break a sweat. 馃挧
    • Born to run! 馃弮

Quotes for Facebook Bios

  1. Share your favorite quote to tell people what you’re all about. If you’d rather not use your own words, use someone else’s. A famous, iconic quote from a writer, celebrity, or public figure you admire can be a fitting way to introduce yourself (and your values) to people who read your Facebook bio. For example:
    Facebook Bio Step 14.jpg
    • The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. —Eleanor Roosevelt
    • You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. —John Lennon

The History of Mental Age Tests

Did you know that mental age is actually a concept that originated in the field of psychology? In 1905, French psychologist Alfred Binet co-created the first ever intelligence test. When children taking the test scored higher than most other children of the same chronological age, it was said that the high-scorers had a higher mental age than their actual age. If they scored lower, they had a lower mental age. From there, the idea of “mental age” was born!

Nowadays, mental age theory has fallen out of favor with psychologists since it’s overly simplistic and doesn’t take into account individuals’ unique skills and ways of learning. Plus, many people find the concept of mental age to be limiting. After all, people are constantly learning and developing new skills, so telling someone they have a fixed mental age of 20, for example, doesn’t feel very fair or accurate.

Instead, psychologists today aim to use more nuanced, holistic intelligence quotient (IQ) tests that factor in the background of the test taker. And IQ is no longer thought of as fixed. Basically, experts now know that intelligence is complex and multifaceted (and therefore intelligence tests need to be too!).

Unlike the psychology-based mental age tests of the past, our mental age test is just for fun and does not represent your level of intelligence. Instead, think of this test as a fun way to see how similar you are to people in different age groups based on your personality and preferences. And remember: just like your personality can change over time, so can your mental age.

How to Improve Time Management Skills

Getting work done, meeting deadlines, and being productive 100% of the time is difficult for everyone. It’s even harder if you struggle with time management. Luckily, there are several ways you can improve your time management skills. These range from simple changes in your day-to-day to complete overhauls in how you schedule your life! This article explores the many time management techniques you can use to get things done more efficiently, including making a daily schedule, getting rid of distractions, and organizing the perfect workspace.

Steps

Set clear and measurable weekly goals.

  1. Write down everything you would like to accomplish. Review your list and prioritize what absolutely has to get done that week, such as a task with a looming deadline. Setting specific goals helps keep you motivated and will make you feel extra accomplished when you’ve achieved everything you set out to do.
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 1 Version 2.jpg
    • Challenge yourself to complete more than you think you can, but don’t go overboard. If you have a massive research paper due on Friday, it’s probably not the time to add organizing your entire home and writing a novel to your list.
    • Instead, try setting the goals of finishing your research paper, organizing your closet, and writing ten pages of your novel.

Create a daily schedule to organize tasks.

  1. Use a calendar or a piece of paper for scheduling. Map out exactly how you want to use your time each day, leaving nothing out of your schedule. Include how much time you would like to spend on each task. For example, start your schedule with something like, “7:30 AM - 8:00 AM: Wake up and eat breakfast.” Follow that with the first major task of your day, such as “8:00 AM - 8:30 AM: Answer emails.”[1]
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 2 Version 2.jpg
    • You may not follow your schedule exactly, as life can sometimes surprise you with how long a task will take. Regardless, a schedule is a great guideline for keeping you on track to reach your weekly goals.
    • Try using a paper planner or writing out a weekly schedule to keep yourself on track.

Prioritize daily tasks by importance.

  1. Pick the hardest or most pressing task of the day to do first. Let’s say you’ve got a colossal amount of homework to do, and you don’t know where to start. Review the due dates of your assignments as well as the difficulty level of each one, and prioritize accordingly. Getting a difficult, time consuming assignment out of the way first will make you feel accomplished and ready to tackle the rest of your to-do list![2]
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 3 Version 2.jpg
    • For example, if you have a massive math assignment due tomorrow and some quick vocabulary worksheets due at the end of the week, start with the math homework.

Concentrate on one task at a time.

  1. It’s hard to get things done when you’re doing too many things at once. As you cross things off your to-do list, keep your mind focused on the task at hand. Shut out thoughts about your other responsibilities, and avoid going back and forth between unrelated duties. It’s much more efficient to tackle one responsibility at a time. [3]
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 4 Version 2.jpg
    • For example, instead of answering emails and returning phone calls at the same time, answer all of your emails before you make your phone calls.
    • Switching back and forth between tasks is more work for your brain and slows down the process.

Minimize distractions and interruptions.

  1. Give each task your full attention. Turn off any distractions such as email, phone, and social media notifications. You should also eliminate noise, such as a nearby TV or radio. Set aside time when you don’t want to be disturbed and don’t address any interruptions unless it's absolutely necessary.[4]
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 5 Version 2.jpg
    • For example, if you plan to write for 45 minutes, don’t answer your phone or respond to any emails during this time. Once the 45 minutes are up, you can check your email.
    • Social media is a big distraction. Schedule social media time throughout the day and stay away from it unless it is during a scheduled time block.

Take short breaks so you don't burn out.

  1. You can't work or be productive 24 hours a day. Schedule breaks throughout your day to give yourself some time to rest and relax. A break allows you to recharge and come back to a task with a fresh perspective. Try to do something on your break that is completely unrelated to your task, like drawing a picture, strumming a guitar, or playing a game of chess on your phone! You may also consider:
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 6 Version 2.jpg
    • Calling a friend
    • Taking a walk
    • Meditating or doing some stretching

Delegate tasks that others can handle for you.

  1. You don't have to do everything yourself! Allowing another person to take care of something gives you a chance to devote yourself to your other tasks while still getting everything done. Be sure you delegate to someone reliable and trustworthy! You don’t want to worry about whether the person will actually get it done.
    Improve Time Management Skills Step 7 Version 2.jpg
    • Remember that delegating is a sign of strength and intelligence, not weakness. Everyone has to ask for help sometimes!

Track your time with a journal or app.

  1. Carry a notebook and write down everything you do and for how long. Alternatively, download a free time tracking app like Due Time Tracking, Calendar, or TopTracker to keep tabs on how you spend each minute.[5] Make sure you are honest. At the end of the day, review how you spent your time. Do this every day for a week to get a good picture of how you typically spend your day. At the end of the week, consider making changes if you find you spent way too many minutes (or even hours) checking social media or surfing the web.[6]

    • It’s best to track your time for a few days in a row to get an honest look at your schedule. Some days you may attend a birthday dinner or a doctor’s appointment, which aren’t everyday tasks and could throw off your schedule.

Review your task list at the end of each day.

  1. Take note of what you completed as well as what still needs to get done. Cross off the tasks you finished and make a new to-do list for the next day, starting with what you didn’t accomplish. Making time for this extra step each night helps you celebrate what you achieved while keeping your goals for the next day in mind. It can also help you get a better idea of what tasks take the most time. Use that information to reassess how much time you should give yourself to complete certain tasks.[7]

    • It’s completely okay to find that you didn’t get all of your tasks done! Remember that tomorrow is a new day. Keep pushing yourself to meet your goals!

Motivate yourself with rewards.

  1. At the start of a task, promise yourself a reward at the end of it. For example, if you have a writing assignment you need to complete but are in no mood to do, allow yourself to go on a 20-minute walk to a nearby park once you’re done with the assignment!

    • Make sure your reward is something that you really enjoy.
    • Your reward should never cause a setback or get you off track. For example, going to the movies or taking the rest of the day off after completing a 30-minute task may not be a good idea.

Say no to extra projects if your plate is full.

  1. It’s easy to take on more than you can handle. Be realistic when agreeing to new responsibilities, keeping what you have to get done already in mind. For example, if your schedule is fully booked with classes and soccer practice during the school week, it may not be the best time to join another club.[8]

    • Learn to say “no." If you cannot say no, be honest about your time constraints. For example, if someone asks you to get something done by the end of the day, you may say, “I'm a little overloaded right now, but I can have it to you by the end of tomorrow.”
    • Over-scheduling can also lead to stress. When you are stressed, you become less productive.

Take advantage of your downtime.

  1. Make a quick list when you’ve got extra time. For example, try using the bus ride to work or school to do some extra planning. This is especially helpful if you find yourself particularly stressed out about your responsibilities during your leisure time![9]

    • Don't devote all of your downtime to planning and organizing. This could become stressful and do more harm than good. You still need some time to relax!
    • If you have 10 minutes of downtime, start by devoting 2 or 3 minutes to getting organized.

Organize your workspace to improve productivity.

  1. Declutter your desk or find a quiet, calm space in your home. If your desk is brimming with papers, envelopes, pens, and garbage, anyone would be a little stressed or distracted! Tidy up your workspace so that you eliminate any potential distractions. Throw away any garbage, dust off your laptop and desk, and try organizing your papers in a folder or binder.[10]

    • You don’t have to eliminate all your personal touches, though! Add a few pictures to look at when you’re looking for a jolt of happiness, or consider a cute pen holder or desk plant to give your space some pizzazz.
