Time Bucket – Energize Your Priorities

Time Bucket – Energize Your Priorities

2524-1-time-bucket-energize-yourTake a look at this little gem I snagged in the iTunes store.  Time Bucket is free with a 1.99 in-app purchase to have unlimited buckets.  But – right now, you can upgrade to unlimited buckets for free.  Yes, run now and snag it for yourself. Then come back.  I’ll wait.

Ok – got it?  Perfect.

This app is simple.  And I’m a simple girl.  You can set it up in a few minutes and then update it when you get a chance throughout the day.  At the end of the day, you have a snapshot of what you did.

I thought I had a pretty good handle on where my time went.  This app has been an eye opener.  I found I was busy, busy, busy making meals, cleaning up from meals and basically spinning my wheels.  As a result of this knowledge, I have been on a mission to streamline our food efforts in our home.  Stay tuned for future posts about that.

I also quickly found I did not have a bucket for “I don’t feel like getting off the couch”. And I certainly wasn’t going to make one. So, guess what? I’ve found myself thinking that it’s not worth taking the time to have a pity party when there are more valuable things to do with my time.  Win-win.

It also has helped me keep my life balanced.  Having more time to do the things I want to do and enjoy doing – that’s a good goal.  I can now see where my time went and where I need to invest more time. I probably won’t keep using it forever, but once I feel I have a good handle on where my time goes, I think I will dust it off once a year or so, just to see where I am.
