I think most of us spend a lot of time doing nothing/wasting time etc.I'm one of the best at wasting my time so I came up with something in order to track down my time and obv, trying to improve my overall performance in everyday life, not only poker.I made a spreadsheet that I'm always willing to improve and I want to share with you, in case you want to track down your own progress, at the end of the page you can find the megaupload link below there is an example (this is mine), as you could see, it's easy to compile, and if you zoom out (see second picture) you can view the entire month... since colors are so easy to recognize you can see quickly if you performed well or not http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0Y6TJTRZ
Sorry, it's going to be hard to display that in thread, it's just such a big image, it'll either be legible and screw up the page or not be legible and fit on the page.However, anybody can right click it and click "view image" and should have no issue viewing either image.
great stuffbut the second image even at high magnification could not be read When do you make this spreadsheet at the end of the day, and enter what you did and at what time? or you make it at the beginning of week as a weekly plan and then confront it with the facts at the end of the week and how it looks in your case sticking to the plan and improving
"Shower, Facebook, Frappe, Facebook, Session."I found a leak.

I made it in order to show you that you can see a whole month and quick look at the colors... "Shower, Facebook, Frappe, Facebook, Session."Def Ry, Facebook is the worst thing ever created, I deactivated my account 2 hours ago ;), hope to improve my efficiency
Awesome decision and it's exactly what I meant haha.
"I deactivated my account 2 hours ago ;)"Good job. Did the same two weeks ago. I like that you're diciplined to keep track of your time, thats really good!What have you learnt form it? How do you analyze your spreedsheat to improve?Do you take into consideration how well you're doing the things? (how well you've sleept, eaten, workout etc)I have a simular like your but I only analyze and rate how good I've succeded with my milestones. Here are three other things that works well for me so I can be more efficient and focused both in life and poker.
(Ask a friend to but a password on it so you cant change your mind and cheat. Saved me alot of time and sperm) It might feel boring at first but you get used to it. There's so many other fun things to do in life.
What have you learnt form it? How do you analyze your spreedsheat to improve?It's easy to track things because the spreadsheet is easy to fill, I learned from it that I'm wasting a lot of time, but I'm working on improving.What I do is basically pay attention to the cell colors... if the purple cells are too much I'm wasting a lot of time Do you take into consideration how well you're doing the things? (how well you've sleept, eaten, workout etc)Right now I'm attention only to my poker related activities... the two different green colour rappresent how I'm performing
I don't use the tv so it isn't a distraction for me, movies on the pc are basically for my free time, and I blocked all the useless pages on the internet
