Tracking Information

Heard a variation of this recently on Cal Newport’s podcast. It relates to the tracking of one’s mood as connected to what media/information one is being fed, using information consumption tracking and religiously tracking such data for a week to see what results can be gleaned. Then, assess afterwards based on the results, where/what/how/when/why you can update, curate, trim, augment, add and subtract. Track all your info sources (news - TV, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, some other feeds, radio, etc). Jot it down daily. Then each day assess mood on a 2 (fantastic/great) to a -2 (really bad) scoring instrument. Track daily for a week. See what you find and then calibrate.
