Statistics and forecasting system

📊 General statistics

Key productivity metrics

Total tasks in the system

Total volume of educational materials in all statuses:

• In progress - active tasks with progress
• Planned - materials in the study queue
• Knowledge base - materials without completion details

Example:

📚 By content types

For each type of materials, the following is calculated:

1. Total quantity The sum of materials of this type in all sections (In progress + Planned + Knowledge base)

2. Remaining work
   • For books: the number of unread pages
   • For other types: the remaining time in hours
3. Completed The number of completed materials from history

By sections

Number of tasks by sections.

Forecasting system

Calculation methodology

Basic parameters:

• Start date from plugin settings: [YYYY-MM-DD]

Forecast algorithms:

For books:

Forecast in days = Total number of pages remaining / Average speed (pages read / days passed since start)

For other types:

Forecast in days = Total remaining duration / Average speed (completed in hours / days passed since start)

Forecast example

💡 Usage tips

1. For an accurate forecast:
   • Update task statuses regularly
2. When analysis:
   • Compare forecast with actual results
   • Consider seasonal factors (vacation, holidays)
3. To balance the load:
   • Analyze the distribution by content types
   • Optimal distribution:

     ⚖️ Ideal ratio:
     ├─ 50% - Main specialization
     ├─ 30% - Related areas
     └─ 20% - New areas
     

4. Analysis of efficiency by content types
   • Compare the speed of mastering:

     Books: 12 pages/day
     Courses: 0.8 hours/day
     Videos: 1.2 hours/day
     

🚀 How to improve productivity

Method 1: The 80/20 Principle

• Analyze 20% of materials that give 80% results

Method 2: Adjusting the plan

When overloaded (more than 5 tasks “In progress”):

Actions:
1. Move 2 tasks to "Planned"
2. Set clear deadlines
3. Add intermediate milestones

For complex materials:

Study strategy:
├─ Break into parts (30-60 min)
├─ Alternate with easy tasks
└─ Record progress daily

Method 3: Optimizing time

Use data on average execution time:

Articles:
├─ Actual: 1.2 h
├─ Planned: 0.8 h
└─ Adjustment: +30% to ratings

⚠️ What to pay special attention to

Red flags

• Tasks “In progress” >7 days without progress
• Discrepancy between forecast and actual deadlines ±40%
• More than 70% of materials in one section
