1. Daily prayer, maybe 15 minutes a day or so.
2. Daily Bible reading. Try one chapter a day at first.
3. Daily devotional.

And so on. You can surely think of the best list for yourself, but I'm just throwing out some general ideas. If you keep your mind focused on things to do, you may find that you stop doing things you don't want to do (like masturbation) automatically.
Yes, these are things I have already incorporated into my life (except the devotional). Thank you for the reminder. I can use these things to my advantage.
