The Minimalist Spreadsheet - Track All Aspects of Your Life
The Minimalist Spreadsheet is one single file where you can track most aspects of your life. If you are tired of multiple apps and charts to track how you are performing in life, this spreadsheet will take care of things for you.
The Minimalist Spreadsheet helps you stay organized.
The idea for a minimalist spreadsheet started when I looked at various apps I was using to track my life. I wondered how those around me did and saw that they too had a difficult time tracking various aspects of life.
The goal of The Minimalist Spreadsheet is simple: one spreadsheet to cover various aspects of your life without the need to know a lot of formulas, shortcuts and complex workarounds.
What does the Minimalist Spreadsheet include?
The minimalist spreadsheet includes the follow sheets to track various aspects of life:
- Journal - inspired by The Emoji Journal we made, it allows you to use one out of ten emojis along with a timestamp to write about a certain activity in your life.
- Monthly Expense Tracker - see how much you are spending for various items and subscriptions in your life; use the time to note down their importance as well as the ones you can cut down on.
- Yearly Expense Tracker - one time yearly subscriptions can seem like a distant thought when you are fighting to survive each month; see how many yearly subs cost you and the monthly average.
- Skills Tracker - use this sheet in the Minimalist Spreadsheet to track the various skills you have (even if they are micro skills). Put them up against the hours you'd dedicate, the price you would charge and the motivation you have towards them.
- Daily Finance Tracker - see how you are spending your money on a daily basis and associate them with brands, places and costs as well as friends to see when you are most likely to spend without any actual need.
- Files Tracker - not being able to find a file you want sucks; use this sheet to track where each file is along with format and keywords to discover where they are.
- Contacts Tracker - made a list of essential contacts and necessary info so that you can refer to it any time you like.
Who is this spreadsheet for?
The Minimalist Spreadsheet is meant for those that want to track their lives but do not want to invest their time learning about Notion or any second brain app.
The spreadsheet works best on laptops, desktops and tablets with a keyboard connected. It is difficult to use on mobile devices.
What are the utilities of this spreadsheet?
This spreadsheet helps you manage daily aspects of your life without the need to go overboard and spend excess amounts of time.
I have made it easy for all to understand and work with the sheets - simply delete my entries and start adding yours.
The spreadsheet is best suited for minimalists who want to declutter their screens when looking at data.
What are the setbacks of the Minimalist Spreadsheet?
- You cannot dive deep in most cases like other finance trackers.
- The use case on mobile phones is difficult and arduous.
- There's bound to be overlap between journal and other sheets.
- If you don't like typing or maintaining the sheet from week to week then it will be problematic and useless to you in the long run.
- The font is set to Space Grotesk; if it does not launch automatically you may be required to change it to Arial or any other font of your choosing.
