TLDR: How we really use our calendar says a lot about how we really live our lives

For the past few weeks, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about how people are actually using their calendars.
It’s a huge thing, obviously, as almost all of us use a calendar and all of us spend our time. But there’s very little data available to anyone outside Microsoft, Google and, to a slightly lesser extent, Apple (the Big Three calendar owners of the West; there’s also Perpetual Calendar, Huawei and Xiaomi in China).
Well, the poll below is intended to shine a little light on that. It’s also designed to be instructive and useful to those going through it, so you should get something handy to reflect on in the filling-it-out. It will take less than 3 minutes so please jump in if you can.
Please also know that I’m offering live 1-1 sessions of 30 mins over the next couple of weeks in which we would go through your calendar (as much as you’re happy to share) as I point out areas of strength and weakness and make a few recommendations. To set that up, just reply to this email. But be quick — I only have 10 slots!
*if this interests you, please be in touch by email, now!
Thanks for doing this. I’ll be sharing the results in seven days.
Marc
