This how my statisic look like for the first week minus monday

Conclusion of the first week:

Tutorial: was needed a lot so it why we see a lot of excess there

Time lost:really hard to focus when i am looking for tutorial also spend a lot of my time think on how to improve by going to the forum(not a waste of time but i am suppose to be doing art and i have the bad habit of procrastination so the forum is not a place for me to be.But being on the forum sometime is like doing a tutorial looking at someone piece or commenting someone help me better understand my own work)Also sometime you need to stop working because you reach some imaginary limit you have at that moment and i call it the determination mark.

Drawing:Increasing but it still under the objective mark(the graphic under the graphic)

Drawing P:seem to be stable but need to be increase to reach the objective mark

[darktiste]

Just so the graphic seem more clear to the people looking at it

Tutorial: Mean that i am looking at some reference or tutorial

Time lost:Do not mean i am necessarly lossing my time but i am not doing what i should be doing at that moment

Drawing:anytime i am drawing a piece of work

Drawing P:anytime i am doing what i have learn in a tutorial or a book(the main diffenrence is that i am more focus on looking at my error then when i am working on a piece)

week 2
take note there is a small error in the graphic. Time is where catergory should be and vis versa

week 2

Conclusion for the second week:

Tutorial:Really on the right spot for the goal to be achieve

Time lost:Really hard to evaluate let do some math for that so to evaluate that we do (total lostx100)/Time evaluated
so (30x100)/138=21% of the time lost on day 1
(67x100)/220=30% day2
(67x100)/223=30% day3
(123x100)/283=43% day4
for the day 5 no math not a really productive day

so as you can see 21/30/30/43 as the day pass i am less productive

Drawing:Doing a old project revap on illustrator it a old project that i am working on illustrator about chibi concept

Drawing P:About coloring,layers,blending,getting better at observation

[darktiste]

WEEK 3 SO FAR
Time lost:Really hard to evaluate let do some math for that so to evaluate that we do (total lostx100)/Time evaluated
so (90x100)/199=45% of the time lost on day 1
(48x100)/216=22% day2
(64x100)/333=19% day3
(58x100)/227=22% day4
(89x100)/219=30% day5

take note there is a small error in the graphic. Time is where catergory should be and vis versa

[darktiste]

Here is the representation of the time evaluated on a duration of 14 days base on the 3 first week

small error in the graphic it the title it time analysis

my average amout of time evaluated per day is 212 or 3h32

[darktiste]

Week4

Time lost:Really hard to evaluate let do some math for that so to evaluate that we do (total lostx100)/Time evaluated
so (20x100)/163=12% of the time lost on day 1
(12x100)/132=9% day2
(50x100)/175=28% day3
/ day4
(13x100)/142=9% day5

[darktiste]

so after 6week i realise i had to go back to tradional art because i was rushing to go to digital i also find out that i have problem with gesture so i spend a bit more time on pratice.So far i did experiment with coloring old drawing, scanning,gesture,a bit of proportion and i don't remember the rest.

good god. so organized! hahaha Do you feel like you can keep a strict minute to minute based schedule? I've always found it a bit suffocating. Doesn't life kinda throw you for a loop every once and a while?

Either way, the data analysis is certainly interesting/impressive.

In fact this post is dead. like you said i suffocate and this was an experience.I try to be more in touch with my need now i try to do what i like and value it instead of imposing my self.But it important to have what i call the time to do the important thing and to have the energy to do it.So example i set a x time to a y time and then i work my ass to fill that period with work or anything i value that is related to art.But i also think there is also place for what i call the punishment time.Where you need too step out of the comfort zone and kill the habit(to try new thing that your afraid off or uncomfortable to try)

The best thing i would suggest is to look at my post here
time management is not about getting stuff done is about getting stuff done in the smartest way it not about a shedule it about priority and flexiblity

Yeah, I can feel you on that. That type of schedule sounds a lot more organic. I've kinda of created an adaption of a schedule to hold myself accountable to my goals based off of Benjamin Franklin's journal of core-value, only a bit more subject oriented.

Thanks for the insight though! I'm in the process of rewriting my own deathline for the new year, so its fun to take a peak at different people's goals as well! :]
