Lifestyle question

What percentage of the time (not including sleep) are you doing things that you actually want to be doing instead of doing things that you have to do or feel the need to do?

Such as you are awake say 16 hours per day - you work 8 hours, you drive for an hour, you clean the house, fix the leaky faucet, etc. How much of your time is doing actually what you want to do? Put it in a guess of the percentage of time.

Try and keep it simple and realistic.

I know it is hard to quantify but I had the thought about this today and when I really thought about it I was taken back about how low my % really is.

%= Time doing what you want to be doing during awake hours.

 

Well does it count that I think about bow hunting and am on BH.com in half my classes?

Ummmm no.

 

Well considering I love my job, I would say roughly 85% of my day is spent doing what I enjoy.

My after work time is generally taking up by reading a few things, shooting my bow, or watching a few shows with my wife.

 

I'm guessing my percentage is 5% or even less at this stage in my life.

 

10% mon-fri

90+ on any day I dont have to see this office

 

13.1%

I did the Math.

 

Can we get a breakout?

 

100% ...It's all connected for me .... If I think about it any other way, I would end up like most people ...whiners...

 

90% of the time during non-hunting seasons. and 30% during hunting season. I go to school full time and am retired so I enjoy going to classes when there are no seasons open. During deer and turkey seasons, I only get out about 30% of what I want to.

 

Ok I did the math too. I figure 1 hour per day on weekdays I get to do what I want out of 16 hours. Then on weekends I prob get an average of 3-5 hours total per day.


So (16x7)= 112 total hours / (5 hours for weekdays + 8 hours weekends) = 13 which equals 11.6%. Not as bad as I thought just guessing.

 

Not nearly enough. I'd suspect 10-20% of my time is spent doing what I really want to do.

 

Oh, the hypocrisy...

 

Case in point ...

 

This is for Mon-Fri

I am up for 17 hours.

12 hours =Work (Getting ready, traveling, working)
1 hour = Other (Garbage, clothes, supper, etc.)
1 hour = Hanging with the girlfriend. Don't see her everyday but just an average.

3 hours of doing what I want to do.

17.6% and I don't have kids.

 

Cmon PT, I heard a ton of whining from ya about all the snow you had to move in March. You didn't make it sound like you wanted to be doing that.

 

Maybe 30% on workdays. 90% on days off. I only work half the month so it's a pretty good trade off.

 

Not sure. Maybe 20%. Summertime, about 60%. This summer, hopefully 90%.

 

Dude...I was on my tractor ....whatchootalkinboutwillis?

 

2 hours per day during the week (daily run, cooking dinner, and relax with the wife after putting the baby down)

6 hours per day on the weekend

total of 22 hours/168 hours = 0.1309
