successr
is a
tool for tracking the amount of time you work (and waste) during the day. At a metaphysical level, time
can be divided into two categories: work time and wasted time. Work time is effectively
used when you focus on at most two relevant projects during the day.
Wasted Time
includes anything that does not fall in Project 1
and/or
Project 2
. Culprits for Wasted Time
are typically
toilet/cigarette/watercooler excursions, lunch breaks, unannounced visits by the boss,
any meeting, internet surfing, chit chat with colleagues, or courtesy calls by
telemarketers, friends/family, and partner(s).
Clicking Project 1
, Project 2
, and Wasted Time
starts the timer,
and Stop
stops the timer. Report
gives a daily, weekly, monthly breakdown
of work time. Edit
allows you to edit only the time recorded during the day and
the Task (from a drop-down menu). DayData.txt
allows you to edit the total time
for a given day (see below).
Upon installation, successr
will setup a data folder (where the data is stored) with a
configuration file, called config.yml
(see config
). The folder can
be found in Sys.getenv("HOME")
. If you want to specify an alternative folder
path, then you must put in your .Rprofile (see Startup
) the following
line: Sys.setenv(R_SUCCESS="my/folder/path")
. In my Rprofile set-up, I have
Sys.setenv("~/Dropbox/successr")
so I can sync between my work and home
computers. Labels for Project 1
, Project 2
, Wasted Time
and
the Window Title
can be changed in the config.yml
file. But don't
waste time doing this, just use the default settings.
