About me
Thank you for finding my website. I am Justin Timmer, and I have this website to improve and show myself. The menu’s and the blogs on the website show you who I am in a more detailed manner. Below I explain the structure of the menu’s.
QS-lifestory
Every day, I track about 40 variables using apps and wearables, I have been doing this since 2013. I don’t always experiment or change behavior when I track things, nonetheless I have learned many things just by tracking my life on a daily basis. Tracking myself raised my awareness of things, confronted me with facts, showed me unexpected changes, and made me deeper investigate important things. I learned a lot about happiness (and that it is not the most important thing), about stress, my phone use, sleep, my resting heart rate, and many more life-lessons. I have many blog idea’s ready because I stacked a huge pile of data over the past years.
QS-experiments
I experimented with many things over the past years to increase my self-understanding and to improve myself. Within this menu you can find a broad range of articles like why do i eat?, and experiment that made me twice as strong in a month without working out, or an experiment where I spend a winter in a t-shirt without feeling cold. Lastly, I experimented, and reviewed many self-tracking devices like the Mindwave-Mobile, the Pavlok, Muse headband, Fitbit Charge 2, Withings Blood Pressure monitor, Basis B1, Ubiome, and hundreds of apps.
Thoughts and idea’s
From my self-tracking, experiments and other experiences, I gained many thoughts and idea’s which I am happily to share here on my website. I am sharing my thoughts to make them more structured, to inspire others, to hear criticism, and to make some of them come true. By writing about my thoughts, it increases the structure and sustainability of my thoughts and this guides me towards new thoughts and idea’s. I believe this is the most beneficial reason for me to blog.
Life
I want to share my life questions and my life goals on my website to show you who I am, what I question, and what I want. I hope people who read them can help me towards answering my life questions, and reaching my life goals (who might be you). I try to update my life-questions quite frequently, because they might change sometimes with improvement or changes in certain directions.
Have fun reading!
