It is very good to have some input about what other people do in similar situations.<br /><br />My first attempt was using KOrganizer . I tried to synchronize it with Google Docs using Akonadi but it didn't help a lot. I wasted too much time on the computer while I need to have access to that with the computer turned off. <br /><br />KAlarm is useful to remind me some things like call someone, reply to an email etc... Little things that are popping without any prior notice and have to be scheduled immediately.<br /><br />Kmail has a really useful feature. Filters and folders. Using filters I have all the mails from mailing list to seperate folders without "acting on new mail". I use another folder for all mails that imply further action to do. This is the default folder of kmail.<br /><br />I ported the schedule to a real table with dates (numbers 1-32 with one blank row). I use a real calendar where I write a review of the day and this to do in the next days in the margins of the corresponding day.<br /><br />Your idea of keeping track of your mood each hour on the computer is useful. A little side comment reviewing what you did during that time would be useful too. A positive side-effect: Reminds you to take a break.<br /><br />Keeping track of the time you sleep is useful too. Sleep too late usually means procrastination. Wake up too late usually is the side-effect. Working is an exception.<br /><br />Could you provide more details about how do you keep track of your day?<br />Talk is cheap, show me the code.Dimitris Leventeashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02068019658379774725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21332048.post-49552170739364476512010-02-14T17:25:26.429-05:002010-02-14T17:25:26.429-05:00Hi Calvin, I liked your post.

I add a half hour, for example, if I spent some time reading or talk with the wife.<br /><br />@srid every 10 minutes seems a bit frequent, but I'll keep using KAlarm because its only one of many reminders.Calvin Spealmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07161631946662126734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21332048.post-79387779275180981442010-02-14T04:59:04.728-05:002010-02-14T04:59:04.728-05:00For internally keeping track of mood, I use this (...For internally keeping track of mood, I use <a href="http://bitbucket.org/srid/haietmoba-reminder" rel="nofollow">this</a> (reminds me every 10 mins).
