Stop watching TV. It will rot your brain, waste your time, and send unhealthy messages to your kids.
TV costs a lot of money every month. Cut your expenses by stopping the cable or satellite TV. Not only will you save by ending your monthly TV payment, but you also will avoid the temptation to buy stuff you don't need because you won't see all those commercials!
If you don't seem to have enough hours to do what you want, stop wasting time watching TV. Use the hours wasted watching TV to get your work done instead.
Look for cultural festivals, lessons, dancing groups and other things in which to participate. Call afriend and go hiking together. Invite friends over to play games, or play cards with the kids.Teach your child how to sew or cook. Do something real instead of watching TV. Try reading a super good book.
When you get home from work, head out on a walk or run instead of hitting the couch to watch the bube-tube. Think of how many hours you spend watching TV. If you were out exercising instead, think how fit you'd be.
TV is packed with brainwashing advertisements. Your favorite TV shows have a huge percentage of ads that make you feel inadequate so you'll want to spend money on products. Stop watching TV, and you cut down on the number of advertisements you see every day. You may not think the TV ads affect you, but they do. Try reading a book with no ads at all.
Wonderful words of wisdom spoken here! I do not watch TV, hardly ever, BUT I watch a ton of movies. (Love those movies!) It dawned on me the other day that it truly is like allowing someone else to take over your brain for those few minutes or hours. You are literally at someone else's mercy when you become engaged in either TV shows (which can be addicting) or movies (also addicting). I can watch an entire movie that has nothing bad or harmful to me in it, except for perhaps one thing. It might be a casual act or word spoken, or something else, but I find that at times it is this one thing that is, for me anyway, a negative that keeps replaying itself for the next few days. Awesome article my friend! Hight 5.
