"Masturbation is self-improvement." ~Fight Club
It's always good to challenge yourself in ways other people thing are foolish. You want to give up watching pornography and things like that? Obviously you do, simply because you're asking this question.
I've talked to a few people about this subject, being a some-what healthy person both psychologically (Uh, I think anyway) and physically this issue has come up with me and some friends of mine.
Now, if you're watching porno just to watch it and think it's a waste of time. Start cutting down on it, start getting rid of any tapes/dvd's you have of it, and start trying to watch it less. That's the first step to everything. Form your environment so it can assist you in doing whatever it is you want to do. After that fight through it, until eventually you only watch it very infrequently, once a month or less, or you don't watch it at all.
If it's an issue of masturbation, that's a similar but different subject. If you're watching them to masturbate and then that's it, it's relatively a common thing. If you think you are masturbating too much, then you shouldn't masturbate so much. Another one of those things you have to work on by getting rid of the things you use to masturbate not limited to videos/tapes.
It's not a bad thing that you are doing it, anyone who tells you it is is a fool. It's a bad thing to continue doing something that you REALLY want to stop. If that's the case, then you owe it to yourself and not to anyone else to stop it. Try limiting yourself, challenging yourself. I won't watch it/do it for a day, two days, three days.... Then continue extending it. If you slip up, that's fine.
Try going outside instead of staying inside and being bored (That's a common factor in why it happens). Keep yourself "busy" doing other things that are fun/healthy. Maybe going outside and exercising, and admiring nature?
