Tracking your life like this helps uncover macro patterns that are hard to see day to day. For example, is there an impact from changing a job, or entering, exiting a relationship, or moving to a new home.

This zoomed out view can teach you how to predict the future impact of such changes, and perhaps that can guide future decisions.

You can use this to ask and answer all kinds of questions.

We can see that OP had a pretty good January, but the mood went down in Feb. Winter blues? Maybe add a vacation at the beginning of February this year.

Only OP really knows the detailsbfor this case but I think everyone can benefit from macro tracking.

Winter blues?

Nah. My dad had a heart attack and had to go in for surgery. He's doing fine now but that better not happen again this year. It really set the tone for the next 3 months or so.
