In any given week, where does most of your time go?

    Many of us know that it takes time to build an online business that works.
    In the meantime many of us need to live as well, so usually a part-time job is the answer.

    In an average week, how many hours per day do you spend on
    - IM business
    - part-time job (or other income source)
    - life stuff (groceries, socializing, fun)

    I am curious to see if there is a pattern.

    Mid Stages are the best because your working and seeing results from your work at the same time.

    Early Stages is all about the delayed gratification torture.

    I'd say my time is spent about 50/50 on business and fun--and my iPhone notifies me of any important emails 24/7 so I'm not sure I ever stop doing "business" (but it's fun that way, imo). Sleep maybe gets 1-2% in there...

    I don't spent time at IM coz i outsource it.
    No because the business i'm working on can feed me for 1 year without working.
    For non business life i spend around 20 hour/day
