It’s been 3 days since I stopped watching television, well almost. I found myself sneaking down after working at night for about an hour’s worth of tv. It satisfied my cravings, and I’ve found that it’s actually pretty easy. Overall though, I’m saving a ton of time and accomplishing a lot. Each night I watch less and less tv.

Tips:

• Reward yourself by working at night. Have a beer, do something fun while working, realize what you’ve accomplished
• Look at your tasks and realize how quickly they’re going away
• Realize that because you’re working, you’re eliminating stress that would otherwise occur when you did something the last minute
• Notice that the tasks you accomplish while watching tv go quicker than you thought.

If you want some inspiration, read a couple of these definitions. They tend to sound a little familiar.

• Procrastination - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procrastination - Find some reasons behind procrastination.
• Time management- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_management - Is it really time management that’s lacking or is it also task management?
• Parkinson’s Law - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinsons_law - Managing tasks may eliminate the ability to always have more work. Something that dawned on me was that I will always have tasks, might as well tackle them now and have fresh tasks than worry about the ones I have.

  Best!
