Time Crafting
Track Your Time
If you want to lose weight, you keep a food diary. If you want to get out of debt, you record your spending. Likewise, if you want to invest your time better, keeping track of how you’re currently spending it is the first step. Once you know where the time goes, you can make changes that will help you spend more time on the things that matter and less on those that don’t.
Over the course of the next two weeks, use the Time Tracking Sheet to track what you are doing and how you are feeling (1 = not at all happy to 10 = very happy).
Happier Hour walks you through this Time Tracking Exercise, explaining how to use it to identify your happiest and least happy ways of spending, and guiding you on how to craft your time to live more joyfully.
Craft Your Time
Chapter 8 of Happier Hour guides you on how best to piece together your activities to design an ideal week.
It is like crafting a lovely mosaic, with your activities as colorful tiles and you as the inspired (and informed) artist.
Here is the blank canvas onto which you will schedule your time to ultimately experience greater purpose and joy across your days.
