You want more of something, focus you attention on it. Remove your attention to decrease it.
I see it clearly now with the internet blocking. There is a particular new hobby I am pursuing now. (Vague because visible and They really are Out To Get You; with a sufficiently high number for They the probability is 1). I spend lots of time reading articles, watching videos, etc.
The time spent is not particularly energizing. It’s distracting and entertaining. There are other activities that matter more to me. I know what the end state of that hobby is for me, and it will be accomplished in six months. (The end state is one more acquisition then then a steady flow of consumables to supply the regular doing of the hobby.)
So I am changing my focus to another area: fitness. I do this my just watching videos from one person on YouTube. Let’s see what happens. I’m not watching videos or reading about the other topic which has consumed me lately.
