This is actually an important topic.  In my experience, the real "problem" with masterbating is that we teach our bodies to respond to certain kinds of stimulation.  Then when the opportunity for "the real thing" appears, our body does not get exactly what it is used to.  

How to Quit?  Ouch, I'll let you know when if I ever accomplish it.  Seriously though, an interim step is to use a super slick lube.  

To QUIT cold turkey...  you'd have to avoid the stimulous entirely.  No porn.  Anything you find stimulating is out...  between real episodes.  In my personal experience (limited as it may be),  the body adapts quickly to changed stimulus but you need to be consistant.  I don't think setting time goals is helpful...  focus instead on enjoying your partner & yourself...  the sensations...   If a particular position isn't hitting the right spots for you shift, change or whatever.

In many cases that means much, much more. lol

Until about five years ago I, like most men jerked off routinely. Usually it was due to not having enough sex and having those ocassional droughts of going days or even weeks without getting any.

In the last five years I have on average had sex about 7-10 times a week. I was averaging about 10 times a week, but that number has since declined to about once a day.  I think I have found a happy medium. It now takes me about 30 minutes to cum if I only have sex once a day, if I have sex more than once the second time takes me around an hour on the third it may take well over an hour. Anything more than three times a day and I may not even be able to cum without skin on skin contact.

I don't know your age, but I am fifty. My sex drive is not quite as strong as it once was, but I can say as long as I don't go more than a day or two without "real sex" I no longer feel any overpowering urge to "self service"

Carry some around with you and when that irresistable urge strikes, pull them out and look at them.

If that don't make your weiner wilt, you had better head for a shrink.

They don't pick 'em for their looks, in case you haven't noticed.

Being able to experience and attend to the cycle of arousal without requiring completion

I become aroused several times a day by something - usually visual - though I rarely if ever watch porn.

I have learned to enjoy being aroused without doing anything about it. Letting it play out. Rarely if ever touching myself, and that usually if I've had a session that was a bit less satisfying than desired.

Being able to experience and attend to the cycle of arousal without requiring completion is a major key to letting go of control of your own orgasm. And this is the key to getting the best out of "real" sex.
