SIMPLE METHOD TO REDUCE THE TIME WE SPEND BEFORE THE TV
Now-a-days
everyone spends more time before the TV. It is not only the youngster but even
the old have taken the rescue before the TV. They spend most of the time sitting before
the TV and watching it from dawn to dusk. This addiction has become a grave problem to many.

HOW
TO GET RID OF WATCHING TV:
Can we
get rid of this unwanted habit? Sure we can. There is a very simple method to do this. All you have to do is just keep a new
note book near the TV. Whoever wants to switch on the TV must enter their name
and time in the book. This has to be followed by everyone at home. After finishing,
they must write down the time they switched off the TV. If you follow this
method, you can surely see these following changes:-
·
Family
members will not like to see their name appearing many times in the book. So ultimately
the will not switch on the TV.
·
Members
who have been saying, “I don’t spend much time before the TV,” now will really come
to know how much time they spend before the TV.
·
The
time spent before the TV by everyone at home comes down terribly.
·
They
have more time to talk and share valuable information with their family
members.
·
This
also reduces the electricity consumption, thereby reducing the energy and the
current bill.
·
Some
might have individual TV for all the rooms in the house. Keep a note book in
those rooms to. It really works. Try it.
·
Instead
of simply sitting before the TV and looking at it, all the family members can
spend time listening to nice interesting, inspirational and devotional stories told by the
other member. So much so each one will be made to tell a story in turns which
will not only increase their knowledge, but also their confidence in life. It
will really help them to face it with more courage.
