Answer:
wa ‘alaykum salam,
Insha-Allah Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani is praying for you.
It sounds like you know your problem. The only thing you need is to dig up the willpower to overcome the nafs, which loves to be lazy and simply enjoy life, with no responsibility. Ramadan is the best time to break bad habits and re-turn your focus to Allah swt. Make yourself fast by getting up for sahoor and then keep all the prayers, this will re-establish worship in your life and you’ll be too tired to watch a lot of TV.
