How to stop watching TV
How I did it: I live alone and watching TV pretty much had become a normal part of every minute in the house. Even if I wasn't watching it I'd have it on. Always in the background. I decided that I'd cancel my cable and do withough. So I did. And it's great. I read more, knit, listening to my music on my zune, and spend more time outside which is great. Everything seems so quiet and peaceful. Aside from going somewhere to catch something like the Academy Awards or something special that I'm really interested in seeing-I don't watch TV. I do have my seasons of Lost, Dexter, and The Office on DVD that I like to watch every now and then-and my movie collection. I'm happy without TV. Great decision.
Lessons & tips: You don't realise how little you actually watch tv until it's gone. I don't miss it.
