On days when there are no timer entries, don't assume that you didn't actually do the practice
TranslatedI’m a developer who created a “harness” and used it myself because I’d been putting things off. I set specific locations and schedules for my activities, recorded the time I spent on them, and reviewed my plans against my actual progress; I’ve also been sharing these records with friends who share the same goals.
There’s something I’d like to consider as we review the records together. Is it okay to automatically assume that a day with no timer entries was a day when I didn’t do anything? Maybe I didn’t press the start button, or perhaps my plans changed. We can’t tell which was the case just because there’s no record. Rather than adding my personal account of what I did on a specific day, I’d like to leave this as a guideline for interpreting the tool’s records.
The next time you’re making a plan, instead of immediately blaming the empty entry, why not check whether you actually did the activity you planned for that day, used the app, or changed your plans? When sharing your records with friends, you can also explain the circumstances before jumping to conclusions based solely on the numbers. This is a separate suggestion for reflection and is not a feature that automatically determines why an app entry is blank.
Harness checks whether you’re in the location you specified when you started the timer and tracks the time spent on the activity. Using a tool I created myself, I wanted to reflect together on what the records reveal and what additional questions we should ask. On days when your creative or personal work records are blank, what questions do you start by asking yourself?
