The Internet has no lack of advice for Lent. My own ha'penny's worth? Keep it simple - whatever you do do it for the love of Christ. Whatever you give up replace with something better. If you spend less time on the net or watching TV then spend that time with family or private prayer. Take up some spiritual reading, the Gospels above all. If you give up some favourite treat spend the money you save on the poor. Replace your vices with virtues and do all for love of Christ.
If you fall go to Confession. Make it regular part of your spiritual discipline. Try to find a wise and orthodox priest to confess to and try to go regularly. Persevere in these simple things and leave the rest to God.
