I have often thought about ways of optimizing my life, but doing so in a minimally invasive/time suck matter. One element, mentioned in the article, is coming up with your “happiness score”. However the way they suggest it seems a bit onerous. I almost wonder if it would be easier to do a “happy or not” style of data collection. Basically like the ones you see at airports, but maybe tied to facial recognition so you know who in the family is recording it. Ideally you would add more metrics (like sleep monitor), but I feel having just that much would be beneficial. Thoughts on this? Can anyone think of an easier method for the basic data collection (which doesn’t involve someone filling out a spreadsheet?)
