Interesting - - - - but you're forgetting some important time users
1. personal care (shower/bath/toilet/nail cutting/hair cuts/shaving)
2. personal care (clothing maintenance/home/maintenance/vehicle maintenance
3. people time (relationships are very important!!!! they take time
(and should!!!!))
4. for others (time on belief systems/political/more)
5. personal (internal dev't (you have study but what about
emotional/spiritual?)
6. waste time (time not book to enable one to 'flow' with life)
         (don't want to get too stressed if you happen to have a
meeting run late - - grin!)

Too tight a scheduling will make things institutional, not enough
results in sloppy
habits and little getting done - - - - I think the trick is somewhere
between the
extremes. Maybe more an acknowledgement of what you need to get done and
then a flexibility so that life is also savored.

Hopefully this hasn't gone way off the deep end of OT!

Regards
