A man came to our house and did something that changed a routine we’ve had for a very long time…

Okay it’s not as dramatic as I made it seem but yesterday we got rid of our cable and downgraded to the basic TV channels. Now don’t get me wrong, I really like TV and I’m not sure what I’m going to do without ESPN and SportsCenter; but it was the right decisoin. We didn’t even watch that much TV but it was my default “thing to do” when I had downtime and being home alone most days the TV was just on for background noise. I realized that watching TV was keeping me from doing more important things like reading and working on our business and our life. An added benefit will certainly be the $$ that we save every month, but that wasn’t the deciding factor.

We’re still going to be able to watch The Office and Seinfeld is alwyas on rerun but I’m excited to turn the TV off and start doing more productive things.

What can you do to make your days more productive?
