Description

### We want to solve:

> We want to help people to **stop _wasting_** their _own_ time.

### How can we solve our problem?
[We cannot manage time, we can only manage ourselves](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2X7c9TUQJ8). We can improve the _way_ we use the time we have.

- We believe **the data on how we use our time is the answer for minimising wasted time**.
- We want to help people track how they are spending their time and help people determine **if they are being effective at working on their most valuable tasks**.
- By tracking the majority of one's day people can see how they are spending their time: e.g: 2h per day on "commuting", 1h on [instagram](https://github.com/dwyl/home/issues/29), 1h making food, 2h watching TV/Netflix, etc...
- With this data we can compare today's habits with yesterday's and the weeks and months before.

We are going to do something _different_, no "sell" just _start_ a timer for the person and then guide them through the "on-boarding" _**immediately**_.

### What if I don't know how to interpret the data / how to take action based on what the data shows?
### Couldn't I just gather this data on another app?

Based on our learnings from the fields of behavioural science, psychology and management we will design Time in a way that encourages users to make the most of their data. We hope to create features that promote effective working methods such as organisational tools to help you stay focussed and to eliminate distractions.

@nelsonic @iteles - do you think this write up summarises how we want to solve our problem? Or is this more of the 'what'?
