Elepa & Faster

Hey, I’ve been crunching data on how people split their minutes—care to see how your “speed” stacks up against a clean spreadsheet of actual time usage?
Faster Faster
Sure, but remember I’m always a few milliseconds ahead of the rest. Show me the sheet.

Here’s a basic layout. Just fill in your numbers and the rest auto‑calcs. | Activity | Minutes | % of Total | Cumulative % | |----------|--------|------------|--------------| | Work | 480 | 50% | 50% | | Sleep | 480 | 50% | 100% | Add any extra rows and adjust the % column to match your actual minutes. The cumulative % should always hit 100%—otherwise, there’s an error in the data set. Let me know if you need help adding a chart or normalizing units.

I don’t have spare minutes, but here’s my quick snapshot: - Work: 450 minutes (37.5%) - Sleep: 420 minutes (35%) - Exercise: 60 minutes (5%) - Reading/learning: 120 minutes (10%) - Misc. errands: 90 minutes (7.5%) - Social: 90 minutes (7.5%) Total 1,200 minutes, 100% of my day. I keep a running clock, so nothing slips past me. How’s that?

Your numbers add up correctly, but there’s a logical inconsistency: 1,200 minutes is 20 hours, so you’re assuming a 20‑hour day, not 24. Either you’re counting only active hours or you’re off by four hours. If you meant a full day, the percentages need recalibration. Also, your “misc errands” and “social” categories both at 7.5%—maybe you should merge them or separate them more clearly. Once you fix the total hours, the sheet will be clean and ready for a bar graph.

Right, I was only accounting for the “active” hours and forgot the full 24‑hour cycle. Let me re‑break it down to 1,440 minutes and recalibrate the percentages: - Work: 480 minutes (33.3%) - Sleep: 480 minutes (33.3%) - Exercise: 60 minutes (4.2%) - Reading/learning: 120 minutes (8.3%) - Misc errands: 60 minutes (4.2%) - Social: 90 minutes (6.3%) - Buffer/transition time: 150 minutes (10.4%) That totals 1,440 minutes, 100%. I’ll combine errands and social into a “Free time” bucket next round so we avoid the split confusion. Now we can chart it without the 20‑hour slip.
