The Formula for a Perfect Day

Basically be fit, fun, and available with some relaxation and indulgence and somehow avoid working or commuting too much.

Researchers claim they’ve figured out the secret to having a great day. But, it involves math…kinda. In a study, researchers analyzed how thousands of people spent their time, across more than 100 activities. They compared that to how the people rated their day, and looked for patterns on days rated “better than usual.”

Here’s what you need…6 hours with family. 2 hours with friends. 1 and a half hours of extra socializing. 2 hours of exercise. 1 hour of eating and drinking. Less than 6 hours of work, indulging in only 1 hour of screen time and no more than a 15-minute commute. Basically be fit, fun, and available with some relaxation and indulgence and somehow avoid working or commuting too much. Someone tried to do this, and they found out that you don’t need to hit every mark to feel better. You just need to make some intentional tweaks.
