Personal insight
Why manual time tracking fails in the long run
Why repeated start, stop and correction steps eventually collide with real life.
You have to remember every single time
A system that depends on perfect attention will eventually produce gaps.
Reconstructing the day is rarely accurate
Small interruptions, travel and changing workplaces are difficult to remember precisely later.
Manual tracking interrupts flow
The tool itself becomes another task instead of reducing work.
A better approach requires less attention
Good automation handles the repetitive part while keeping every result visible and editable.
