Apple Health work time

This year I have been working a LOT. It’s been a busy season, but that’s what you get when you decide to start your own business. Unlike a large company, responsibility is rarely shared. If you don’t get it done, no one will.

This is both overwhelming at times and simultaneously extremely rewarding. You’ve got to love what you do to work crazy hours on something. It’s not for everyone (but it seems like it’s for me).

Anyways, given how much time I spend working, I started thinking about quantifying this value. What if there was a way to see a live activity on your phone of how much time you have spent working vs. your “free” time?

For most people, this would probably be a depressing realization that a third of their life is spent working (not counting commutes). That said, it could also be a powerful motivator for people who are trying to work less.

I doubt this ships because it’s too hard to measure, but it’d be interesting if it did.
