My Life Stats: I Tracked My Habits for a Year, and This Is What I Learned
<p>This is probably the longest, most time-consuming experiment I’ve done in my life. On top of that, it has little scientific significance — the population sample is just one person — and is highly subjective (it completely relies on my memory and perception of time).</p>
<p>Then why do this? Routines, as any other method of self accountability, help me in lots of different ways. I started this at a low point in my life, trying to study myself and how different habits could be impacting my mood and mental health. The point was to be able to “hack” my own brain: if I knew — statistically — what made me happy and healthy in the long run (and what did the opposite!) I would be able to improve my life, and potentially give tips or help people similar to me going through rough times.</p>
