I recently did a challenge of 100 days of commits to side projects and I'm now at day 96. I think this was awesome for me, as it kept me really focused on my projects, even if some days I had only small commits.

I think my next challenge might be even more focused and look to launch one of my prototype projects in a specific amount of time. This will force me to focus and launch something, even if it isn't perfect.

My constraint is a bit different. All I have to do is work more than last week's day. For example, if I achieve for Monday 3.01 hours. All I have to do for this week Monday is to achieve 3.02 hours. It has gradually pushed me from 6 weeks ago of 23 hours to 30 hours this week.

Once I reach my goal of 30 hours a work week, my goal is to merely maintain the momentum and shift most of my workload 2-3 days so I am not working all week all the time. (Although, some activities must be done everday, such as studying)

What tool are you using to measure this?
An online time tracking tool I wrote.
