Your Life In Weeks is a neat tool I saw on Felix's Twitter account, visualize your life so far in an Excel. Make every day count.

I wonder how much of his life was wasted making this spreadsheet? 😂

Btw, I'm a huge fan of Krause and his work with Fastlane. But, if this is what _his_ life looks like in a spreadsheet, I don't want to see what it looks like for mere mortals like the rest of us. :)

@joshuapinter Thanks for the kind words. I time-boxed the task, and spent about 2 hours on the spreadsheet, much of which was finding out the exact dates for each of the events 👍

Since building this for your life @krausefx do you feel more aware of your mortality? ☠️

Who says your baby emoji has to be in the top left corner?! You could also use emojis for birthdays throughout the year of people important to you, and other emojis for other annual events such as wedding anniversary, perhaps add an extra row for these recurring annual events. This Chrome extension could prove very useful: https://chrome.google.com/websto... I have decided that it's better to just start the year at the same time for everyone - 1st January. The academic year and holidays are roughly the same for you every year, so why not other things? The only thing this splits is Christmas Holidays as they finish in the first week of January, but for cleanliness, I might say the end a few days early. I suggest in a second sheet that I'm calling "Noteworthy" that you add a paragraph or two about each time period. Import the first sentence or two or into cells in the first sheet, or alternatively somehow create a link to the relevant section in "Noteworthy" sheet. Having said this, I find it depressing, especially for work-related things! Try starting this when you're a lot older!

I have my own spreadsheet but it lacks custom visualization. I couldn't find a version I liked, so I knocked up a web version at https://zrxj5vvjvl.codesandbox.io/ feel free to fork and play around. it's a work in progress, be kind :)
