1. Quantified Self Toronto:Tracking time, groceries, prices, and other things Sacha Chua (http://sachachua.com) Tracking: What do I spend time on? Is it in line with my priorities? How do I want to change how I work? How much do the supermarkets differ? (Quite a bit.) Is it worth ordering groceries online? (Not really, for me.) What’s our typical grocery budget? $200-300 (regular), $500 (holiday) / month How much do we spend on different items? How often do we buy things? Is it worth switching to, say, lactose drops instead of lactose-free milk? How can we change our patterns? Future: What happens if I shift my time away from reading and writing to focus on drawing and meeting people? What’s a good balance point? How do my energy, happiness, and productivity vary day to day? What factors influence those? How can I stack the deck? What am I learning, and how can I share that with others?
