you should try to water with more volume less often if possible. Most people can get there plants on a once every 3-5 day watering schedule, depending on the size of pots and the medium. This forces your roots to grow to find water as well as limiting the risk of root rot.

lift the pot to see if its dry. Make sure you have 5-10 percent run off.
Unless its 100f in your room you wont be watering everyday
When the pot feels empty u water it. Its common sense not to water your plant everyday unless its drinking more than you are
