I just keep busy, if not with things that are an absolute chiyuv or necessity, then at least with things that seem to chap my mind. In my case that could be playing a musical instrument or certain types of excercise. Also, reading things that I always wanted to, which are worthwhile to know, not fiction. Writing a letter. You get the idea. This seems to be a quite easy pleasant way to keep out of trouble. We'll see if it contiues to help. I also think that dwelling on the subject of shmiras habris too much in this generation can be counter productive. What is too much can vary by the individual. Also, I do not seem to be as addicted as some others are Bechasdei Hashem Yisborach.
