So in this video, I really wanted to talk about spending a lot less time watching TV. It is probably one of the biggest things I imagine for just in general all of America that really will kill your time. I generally like to limit myself during the week to at max, maybe two episodes a day, and even that is generally pushing it because most TV shows if you go on like Netflix, for example, they're usually about 40 minutes long with no commercials. And you're basically dedicating a good hour and a half of time, you know, if you pause to go to the bathroom, or whatever it is in between, you're probably looking at a good hour and a half chunk of your time out of your night. If you're working something like a nine to five, you're getting home, it'd be six o'clock 530 and you spent an hour and a half watching TV that may drain you know that's essentially draining a good solid, good chunk of time before you actually have to get to bed.
So in a lot of cases, I either will basically very much restrict my my time watching TV. Be during the week, or I might only watch, you know, I might just watch one episode or completely not watch it at all. I just happen to have a girlfriend that loves to watch TV. She's really into TV shows she's always on Netflix watching new shows, you know Breaking Bad and she's ended this new one right now she's got me hooked on and it's like, Yeah, I'd love to just binge watch like five episodes and that's something she can do. But I'm, I would much rather spend the time focusing on things like building Udemy courses, working on these different properties, building up my business and making more passive income for myself. Rather than actually going out there and sitting around coming home after work and watching a bunch of TV shows you know, it's just kind of feels like a waste of time to me.
I'd really much rather be in a position where maybe I have all this money coming in and I don't need to worry about any anything else at this point. And then I can go and watch all the TV I want. And even then I probably still won't do it because I'll probably still be focusing on making more money and bettering myself in some way with this. That's just the mentality I have. So I really want you to think about that, you know, think about how much time you're watching TV right now, and figure out if it's worth sacrificing, figure out if it's something that maybe you're addicted to. Maybe you're spending out too much time watching it.
And if it's really hindering you from getting out there and starting to build a business, then I'd say take a look at that and possibly even stop watching it all together or just reduce it by a significant amount.
