There's only 168 hours in a week. What you do with them, consistently, is what defines your life. [[You Are Time]]. It's definitely worth thinking about (and, from time to time, tracking) how you spend your 168 hours. # An Ideal(ish) Week Base 168 - **Sleep**: 7 * 8 = 56 (don't do less, [[Protect Sleep]]) Remaining: 112 - **Work**: 40 + 8 (commute) = 48 (~30% of your life, figure out how to enjoy it) Remaining: 64 - **Chores**: 1.5 hrs/day = 11 ([[Love the Process]]) Remaining: 53 - **Exercise**: ~1 hr/day = 7 ([[Ideal Exercise Regiment]]) Remaining: 46 - **Family**: 3 hr/day = 21 Remaining: 25 - **Hobbies**: 1 hr/day = 7 ([[Have Hobbies]]) Remaining: 18 - **Everything Else** Even after spending "appropriate" amounts of time on all the things, you still have essentially _a full day per week_ of extra time.
