No self control

I got hooked to korean & japanese series these days since i have bought a dvd player. I've not had any player until now....yeah, i'm that backward u see. One of the main reason i dont buy a player and not subscribing Astro, because I knew i will get hook to TV :) That's me !! I like watching any good series, and u know, there're so many "good" attractive shows these days that u just can't resist ! I have made a good decision of not having any player ............... till now......

Not sure if 'avoiding' is a good way of 'self- control' ? I tend to 'avoid' things, event, people that i dislike, that i think my 'bad-me' will appearing. The Bible has highlighted the needs & important of 'self control', e.g.:

Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 1Corinthians 7:5

Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 1 Timothy 3:2

...there're many more verses besides the above mentioned.

With the player i had now, i have borrowed from friends/colleagues many vcd/dvd movies that i have missed; all these were queue up & will occupy my after-office times at home. I have put aside my assignments (that i need to do) & books (that i should be reading).

I need to gain back my self-control !
