I recently took the plunge after 20 years and brought Sky TV into the house, mostly so Callum can watch football. 

I subscribed for 2 boxes, 1 in my living room and 1 in another room but the 1 in the living room isn’t working at the moment and I haven’t got round to fixing it! 

I signed up for the movies too but I also have Apple TV and Amazon prime and Netflix. 

This is all at odds to what was going on during the first lockdown when I cut every subscription out of my life but now I find that we are quite well equipped for options to choose from in terms of streaming our television, even though I paid to watch the bond movie the other night by buying it for £14. 

I’ve got apple podcasts and I get a credit every month in my subscription to aduible for audiobooks. 

I got another book given to me yesterday by someone else to add to the pile on my bedside table which is massive. 

I’ve not bought a kindle ever because I can’t face it. 

I have a mobile phone which has limited apps on it but it still has BBC on the web browser and my personal emails and my pretend snapchat account (see previous blog [here](https://www.campbellacademy.co.uk/blog/a-trip-into-snapchat?hs_preview=rjhXWLZh-62814930257)). 

I’ve got lots of apps on my phone for ‘efficiency’ including Asana and various others. 

What I don’t need is anymore media. 

In order for me to even scratch the surface of any of these things that I’ve got, I would need 5 times the amount of time that I have. 

More media doesn’t fix it. 

Understanding how to use the media for the purposes and direction you’re looking for is what works.
