This is interesting. I once calculated the approximate number of weeks I had left to live and wrote it on my whiteboard, estimating my lifespan from family history and trends (+ 4 years/generation for my family's men). I subtracted 1 every Monday.

My wife thought it was pretty morbid. I never thought to deliberately punctuate each week, though. It was motivating at first, but wore off.
