February 1st to February 7th was my Miami Vice week. Pink. Blue. Teal. These are my family colors. Existence now lets you customize your pillar colors across sleep, life, work, and health. So when you account for all of your time, your existence actually starts to look like you. What four pillar colors will you choose? Join the waitlist here: existence.io/?utm_source=x-…

Time has a structure. You already live it every single day. Morning routine. Health. Work. The people you spend time with. What you do at night. You’re doing 15–25 things a day, but only 6 or 7 really matter. Those are the strings of time that create who you are. When you identify those patterns and design them intentionally, you realize something simple but powerful: Time is you. And you’re creating it.

I asked Existence to write a rap song about my life … hitting way harder than I expected “Time Creator 2026” a Rob Dyrdek joint😂 existence.io/?utm_source=x-…

You don’t want to balance life. You want to balance your mind. Your mind is limitless in its ability to learn and grow, but limited in its capacity to process. When you dwell in the past or worry about the future, that capacity gets stolen. Awareness of what you take on is how you stay in a balanced mind state and continue intentionally creating time.

With Existence, I can predict the future. What I’m showing you on the screen isn’t my past week. It is my next week. I’m most intentional when almost all of my time is planned. The system turns planned time into insight.Insight into what’s ahead. That’s how I intentionally create time. Learn more about the software I'm building here: existence.io/?utm_source=x-…

How you feel will always matter the most. I rate my time from zero to ten. Anything below a five is a negative state for me. I can have a really positive day. One bad moment can collapse my mind. The system in Existence helps me track those moments and then I start understanding what’s actually driving the experience of my time.

Time is created the same way everything else is. From possibility to probability to reality.

Why I Started Measuring My Life in Percentages In 2020, I began to see time through the lens of percentages. It was the first time my calendar was turned into real data and I could see how I was creating myself through the four core pillars of my existence: life, work, sleep and health. That clarity showed me what balance looked like for me, but only at a high level. When we built Existence, we wanted to take this further so you could see your percentages by day, by week, and by month, and understand the rhythm of how you are creating your life.

This is the Existence Grid. It was inspired by the idea of seeing your entire life laid out in weeks. How much you have created and how much you still have to create. The grid is designed to show your life in years, months, weeks, and days. Not just as time passing, but as time created. For me, that is 51 years, 618 months, 2,686 weeks, and 18,802 days. It all began with one time block. June 28th, 1974 at 6:50am. The first block of my existence. This grid becomes the record of what you have created. The true story of you.

In 2020 I decided to start tracking all of my time. That first week showed me time was not nearly as complex as I thought. I was only doing 15 or 20 things a day and each day was different while my weeks were similar. There was a clear structure to time. This is when I realized being accountable to all time was being accountable to my real self. So when I created Existence, I needed to make being accountable to time effortless and easy.

July 15th, 2015 was the very first time I used qualitative data to assess my sleep, life, work, and health. It was also the first time I began to see a calendar as a place to store data about myself. Asking how I felt and giving it a number created a deeper awareness that revealed more quantifiable insights over time. When I built Existence, I decided I did not want to do it for just the whole day. I wanted to see the quality of every block of time. existence.io

In 2015 I built a spreadsheet that would change my perspective on time forever. I realized time had a clear structure and everything unfolded in this structure. This Rhythm of Existence capacity planner is the genesis of what existence.io would become 10 years later.

The start of a new chapter. bit.ly/4oVQ4X8
