I was wondering how I could extend this to 24 hours. I tried, but it won't register any boxes I add past 10pm. Any idea how to do this? I wonder if you could email me with the answer.

I learned about it in a book called "The Now Habits" by Neil Fiore. The idea is that each time you find yourself procrastinating on a task, you log the details of the task and the time as well as what you were thinking/feeling about the task and your justification for putting it off. After you have logged a week or so worth of procrastinating, you attempt to analyze the reasons and situations that triggered your procrastination and hopefully address it. I have been meaning to do this for a long time. Fiore also has a brief discussion of using the Flow State, I believe I have seen that discussed around here recently.

This sounds like a great Google Desktop snap in or even an extension to MLP. Every x minutes you get a little alarm and then you pop open the tool and enter a brief description or pick from a list. hmmm, who do we know that writes cool time management software.

I have done time audits for years, but never with such a tool. I'm going to have to give that a shot, although considering the number of tasks, I will probably make some mods. The countif function was one I was not aware of. Thus, not only a great tool, but some cool education on what all excel can do. Thanks!!! Hey, wow, thats one cool template.

Some days, I simply don't know WHERE my time goes; I work hard all day long but lose focus because of distractions. This will be incentive to push the distractions away. Thanks! This is brilliant!
