You have no idea…do you? RescueTime is an app that monitors your computer activities, and reports back how productive you are. It may be an eye-opener! The service acts as a productivity snitch, offering you reports on how you spend your computer time. The idea behind RescueTime is to help users to:

Spot inefficiencies in their day. Become better at self-managing. Make measurable changes that impact their time in a positive way.

Here’s another of my videos that outlines what RescueTime can do for you — as well as what it can help you not do.

After giving it a go, I believe that RescueTime delivers. I discovered that I average productivity of over 60% with my time — not bad, but not great. Give RescueTime a try for yourself and see how you do! (And if you’re feeling up to it, let me know how you fare with your time in the comments.)
