[...] course, it sounds like a dream to some that you could earn over $25,000/month working just 5 hours per week, but I really do. In fact, I expect to be making about double that by the end of this year, with no [...]

Wow. I am so amazed! This is great. I am now inspired from all I am reading to consider how I could find my passion (beyond home) and put it to some kind of business and see how I use my time to make sure it fits my values. Love me some Stephen Covey. Way to go living the dream life. Oh, I served a mission in Honduras, but lived in Spain, almost in the Canary Islands but decided to stay mainland. Anyway, best wishes to you all!

[...] I keep track of my time using SlimTimer.com, so I can measure how effective my time is at producing results. I wrote a blog post a while back that goes into detail about exactly how I spend my time in a given week. It’s a little outdated – back from when I was still doing some freelance programming, but it will give you a good idea. You can read it here: How I Spend My Time. [...]

RescueTime.com looks like a cool program, Dustin. Good find! I’m trying out the Solo light version (free) right now.

So I tried tracking my time. It went OK, but too often I found myself forgetting to stop or switch the tracker, so eventually I gave up on it.

Well last week I ran across RescueTime.com. It’s pretty cool. It runs an app on your computer that monitors which applications have focus and inside of browsers which sites you are viewing. It then keeps track of your time this morning.

I’m still trying to see how accurate it is. But it has been pretty cool. It recognized that when I was working in e editor and localhost:8000 and tagged it as development time! I’m quite impressed so far.

You are amazing :o) I found this post very interesting. I KNOW if I tracked my time … I would find I have lost hours unaccounted for. I’m going to try and be more aware of where and how my time is spent.

Brandon, thanks for spending 1 1/2 hours writing this blog post! :D

Seriously, its true. I know I’ve told you how things have improved greatly since being more diligent at tracking my money. We’ve gotten rid of $40,000 in consumer debt, remodeled our old house and upgraded our home in a new area.

We have family pictures coming up, and I wanted to lose weight but lacked motivation to diet, so I just started using “Lose It!” on my iPhone to track everything I ate and also track my weight. I’ve lost about 7 lbs the past 3 weeks which is really not back since its mainly to do tracking and being conscious of what I’m eating.

I have also been more productive at work since being asked to track the time I spend on MSC vs Scanvo. I don’t know why I have never thought of tracking the time I spend on MY business (other than freelance work). I’m going to give it a try for sure this week. I think first I’ll try to make a plan of where I want to spend my time and see how close I come to it.

You’ve ALWAYS been very disciplined and organized. I think it’s a gift…. which I don’t have.

But I do I love Slimtimer and have been very grateful you shared it with me on my last visit to Salt Lake. I’m better using it sometimes than others, and need to get in the habit of using it more. I know it was surprising to me how much time I spend on certain tasks….

Great post, by the way…. I still think that one day you’re business will turn the direction of you giving seminars, web training, etc. on these kinds of topics :) And you’ll be great at it!
