Are you watching too much TV?

I just finished reading an article at savingadvice.com titled "How Dumping TV Allowed Me to Quit My Job, Create an Online Business and Fund My Retirement Account ", which was very interesting.

I use to watch a lot of TV. Probably more than the average person (4.5 hours/day). Lately, however, I've found myself watching far less TV. Instead, I've been working out, playing sports, reading (granted it's mainly only, but I digress), and working more on the side projects that I've wanted to work on for a long time.

Not only have I been getting more done, but I've also been feeling much more healthy and focused. I'm getting to the point were I don't have to rely on my alarm clock in the morning. And that's a feat for me, considering I love my sleep.I still have my moments when I don't want to do much, but that mainly stems from stress at work (which comes with working for a giant corporation).

My next goal is to work on my productivity over the weekends. I don't have a family, so I don't have the family time that a lot of other folks have, therefore I tend to watch a lot of movies or go out drinking (which is pretty much all there is to do in Springfield). I'll keep you posted how my weekend productive performance increases (hopefully).

How much TV do you watch? Have you cut back lately? If so, how has it helped your productivity in work and in life?
