I tracked every hour of my life in 2025.

I tracked every hour of my life in 2025.

Not just activity but also mood, energy, and how my body felt.

It didn’t fix anything overnight, but it really really helped me notice patterns I’d been ignoring for months and years, like around rest and emotional fatigue.

Suprisingly, this helped me more than expected.

If you’re constantly tired for no clear reason, you’re not broken, you might just need to listen a little more closely 🤍

One unexpected change was my screen time at night. Earlier, I used to mindlessly scroll before sleeping. Once I got into this habit, I’d spend a few minutes thinking about my day instead — what went well, what felt heavy, and how I was actually feeling. It slowly became a habit of checking in with myself rather than escaping the day.

Over time, a few patterns kept repeating (and this part surprised me):

• Happy evenings → better sleep
• Emotional evenings → restless sleep
• When my space was cluttered, my emotions felt messier
• Proper rest mattered more for my mood than motivation
• Ignoring my body often led to emotional evenings
• Emotional spikes showed up before burnout days
• Chores took way more energy than I ever expected

At the end of the year, seeing the highlights of each day all together was honestly emotional. I realised that even though I kept telling myself I “didn’t achieve anything” in 2025, I was actually… okay most days. Mostly neutral. And that realisation made my New Year’s Eve a lot better — I was being way harsher on myself than the data showed.
