Hello everyone, my name is Akim. I am a third year physics student at a university in the United States. I became interested in the quantified self concept after I spent the entire last semester tracking the total amount of time I spent studying for each class. I used an iPhone stopwatch to record my time which I would then log into an Excel document. A month into the semester I began to rely more on RescueTime, which quickly improved my time management.
Along the way I realized that the more I paid attention to the way I spent my time, the more productive I became. This shocking discovery lead me to search out for more effective ways I could learn to “quantify” myself, which essentially brought me to this website.
I’m starting a new semester next week and I hope I can find extra time to contribute to the forums and meet new people who are also interested in this stuff. I’m currently learning how to code using Python and I even got an idea for a QS side project of my own. So are there any other students out there?
Also, can anyone recommend me some other great QS blogs/forums that offer relevant information on the topic?
