First, if you subscribe to multiple streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, etc.), pick one and cancel the others. I realize that might mean abandoning shows you enjoy, but that’ll always be the case. There’s no better time than the present to cut the cord. Second, review the shows you watch. Rate them from one to ten in terms of how much you enjoy them. Abandon any shows that rate below eight. Third, limit the amount of time you spend watching TV. U.S. adults watch an average of five hours per day. Over seven days, it’s practically a full-time job. Commit to watching only two hours a day.
