2. Flow test

How interrupted is our free time?

The power of flow time: How interrupted is our free time?

Not all free time is created equal. Paul Graham wrote a wonderful piece on the value of uninterrupted time in
Maker's Schedule, Manager's Schedule
⁠
. For this test, we will define uninterrupted flow time as a block of at least
2
⁠
hours of uninterrupted time. Feel free to adjust that number to change the criteria.

Team results:
82.1%
⁠
flow time

According to our data, the average across our team is
24.3
⁠
hours of flow time per person. This is
60.78%
⁠
of our aggregate working hours. More importantly,
82.1%
⁠
of our total free time is uninterrupted flow time. Reflect as a group — is this more or less than we expected?
