Hahaha, that’s a good one :)

I do agree about smoking, that’s nr 1 for me and TV also, which is a waste of time. Thanks, i had a good laugh reading it and remembering some of my older habits :D

Cut out the commuting and other unnecessary ways

Commuting wastes so much time. I travel one hour one way. So thats 2 hours a day and 10 hours a week! The office is in central london, so to move closer would be a problem because of the extortionate cost of accomodation there.

2. Do not watch TV

I don’t have a TV. Not had one for 7 years. The only time I would like to watch the TV is for news, but then I read the newspaper anyway. TV is a complete waste of time. You also get alot of negativity from TV such as notification of murders, rape, wars etc

3. Do not read books before going to sleep

That really depends on the books you read. If it is of a intelligent nature e.g. technical, it gets your brain working and so makes it harder to sleep. Some books which require no thought at all, does help with sleep.

4 Quit smoking

Totally agree with this. When I was smoking I couldn’t wait for my next cigarette and always took extra breaks. The best way to stop is to stop completely. Stopping by reducing the number of cigarettes you take is actually counter productive and reinforces the fact that we need our next hit. Read Allen Carrs book on stop smoking. It worked for me

5. Do not read news first hand, read what the crowd has chosen

I just select news I am interested. I think I read what the blogger has chosen really as I don’t really participate in digg etc

6. Do not use forums

I don;t use forums anymore. I remember in the days when I did, I kept wasting time checking replies the thread I started etc.

7 Do not check, read and answer email

I guilt of checking my email too many times sometimes. Mainly because I get emailed whenever I make a sale.

8 Switch off Skype and other IM software if you do not expect a call

Yeah, I have stopped using MSN Messenger while I work, and realised how much time it was wasting me in the past when I had it on all the time.

I probably also had to mention I will keep trying to quit. ; )

I had just written an article posing the question of how power users found the time to participate.So this was highly relevant.

I’ve already ruled TV out, so no problems with that. I’m at pains to stop reading before bed, but it is something I’m considering. It’s very true that you simply can’t enjoy them in short spurts.

Where does exercise fit in amongst all of this…? :)

Turning from chain smoker to occasional smoker and after a year or two stopping it altogether as the occasions (stress, parties, “being cool”) became less frequent.

You either have to stop fully or you get never rid of the habit. I know, i tried it all.

Smarty: Either you are with me or against me!

Tony: Print it out!

pearl: Actually stumbling is more addictive than smoking I guess.
