Shocking Truth about TV Watching

Have you watched TV for hours because you have nothing better to do or worse yet because you can't get motivated to do anything? Maybe this does not affect you personally because if you landed on this site then you weren't watching TV. More than likely you know people perhaps even in your own family that fit into the trapped by the TV penalty box.



Why call it a penalty box? Is it keeping you or someone you love from continuing the game of life? It most certainly is!



So many of us use this electronic babysitter to mind our children. How can we encourage our children to get exercise, read, learn, play and think when we allow them to spend too much time in front of TV and we spend time in a different room watching TV! Our children are learning to be sassy, unimaginative and lazy by watching too much TV.



Adults tend to turn off their brain, procrastinate and be entertained by TV. Don't get me wrong there is a time and place for relaxation and entertainment however with more people home due to unemployment it is so sad that people aren't using this time wisely for self development. There are tons and tons of FREE self development type books in County libraries and articles on the Internet. Do you need inspiration, motivation, help with moving past your mental road blocks whatever it may be, there is something out there that could be of great benefit to you if you only looked.



We spend our time cocooning at home, watching TV, wondering when the economy will turn around and when there will be a job available for us rather than going out blazing our own path, coming up with our own ideas, taking steps to better ourselves for our own sake. We are the CEO's of our own lives and unfortunately many of us are leading the company (our life) into the toilet by sitting idly by waiting for things to fall into our laps.



Some people reading this may take offense to this because there are many hard working, inspired, determined people out there who are doing the very opposite and are trying to better themselves and perhaps feel down that their efforts aren't working. If you are one of them, keep up the good work. Examine what is holding you back and preventing positive outcomes. Do you have problems with fear, negative self chatter or low self esteem? Don't worry you are not alone! There are solutions that will help you! Recently I came across a technique called EFT which seems very effective at removing these negative crippling self doubts. Google it and you can learn all about it, do it for FREE in your own home and heal yourself with no medication, no Dr visits, no co pays, no hassle. I felt like a major weight was lifted off my shoulder after trying this technique.



Bottom line is don't get bamboozled by the idiot box TV! I've heard famous public speaker Les Brown refer to it as the "electronic income reducer". When we watch it we aren't spending quality time with our children, we aren't reading, we aren't writing, we aren't bettering ourselves, we aren't planning for our future and we aren't coming up with new entrepreneurial ideas or plans that contribute to the world, we aren't making any money, we aren't leaving a legacy.
