If it's a normal household toilet you simply lower the water level in the tank that's over and behind the toilet by adjusting the fill valve. There are many different designs so I can't tell you how on your particular toilet. Some ae as easy as turning a plastic screw and some are a real pita. If you adjust it and raise the water level too much water may run over into the overflow tube and it will just keep running. If you lower it too much your toilet may not flush completely. Generally I adust mine as high as they will go without overflowing in order to get a stronger flush. I have never needed or wanted to turn down a flush.

How does a sloan valve work?
A "Sloan Valve" is the well known valve used on (primarily) commercial toilets and urinals. Touching the chrome handle causes the toilet to flush, violently washing your troubles down the drain. What does that handle do and what makes the toilet flush with such great force? If you look closely, the pipe coming into the valve is much larger in diameter than an ordinary toilet's pipe. This is the secret to the Sloan Valve. The normal water pressure in the building pressurizes the big pipe and when the famous chrome handle is moved, the water in the big pipe is allowed to dump all at once into the toilet. When most of the water pressure in the big pipe is depleted the chrome handle resets and the water stops flowing. If the toilet had a small pipe like most other toilets, the large water volume would not be possible, and the high power flush that we have all grown to love would not be possible. So, the Sloan Valve is not the secret at all. It's the large pipe ahead of it that stores all the water and it's associated pressure. The Sloan Valve is just a large valve capable of releasing it all at once.
