Tracking Time for Accountability

Tracking time effectively helps individuals gain insight into how they allocate their daily hours. One listener shared her experience using an Excel sheet to log activities every half hour, which made her reflect on how much time was devoted to work versus meetings. This tracking revealed surprising data, such as spending nearly half of her workday in meetings, shedding light on productivity and opportunities for change. By holding herself accountable and analyzing this information, she recognized ways to optimize her schedule and ensure she was dedicating sufficient time to essential tasks.
