You have chosen a hard path – to recognize when you are doing what you don't want to do and stopping it. It's easier not to go into the candy store at all. I think it's important to assess how we spend our time and refocus on what is meaningful and lifegiving.
As it turns out, I'm joining you – my plan is also to surf less and pray more.
