#personal-hackathon ## What is a Personal Hackathon? A [personal hackathon](https://www.personalhackathon.com/) is a day dedicated to achieving maximum productivity. A full Personal Hackathon is 12 hours: it includes 8.25 hours of focused productivity in six 90 and 45 minute minute cycles, each followed by a rest period. ## What is a Self Model? - “The UP Self-Model is to as clearly as possible define [who you are](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-concept) and who you wish to be. It helps you set, plan, and achieve your life goals” - in our context its the first start at building a Life Plan, or mapping out all your areas in life and thinking about how much you want to invest in them ## Preparation <aside> 👉 Make sure you have enough sleep and everything else on your mind is done or can be done later. </aside> - Things needed in Advance - [x] Everyone invited - [x] Everyone has access to this template - [x] Food and Logistics planned - [x] WiFi installed ## Schedule | 09:45 | Arrive and set up | | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------- | | 10:00 | Overview and Introduction | | 10:30 | Focused work: Planning | | 12:00 | Active Break | | 12:45 | Focused work: The Self | | 1:00 | Lunch | | 1:50 | Calisthenics and stretching | | 2:00 | Focused work: Your Life Areas | | 3:30 | Active Break | | 3:50 | Focused work: Deep dive into one area | | 5:20 | Group Check In | | 5:30 | Active Break | | 5:40 | Focused work: Goals | | 7:10 | Dinner | | 8:00 | Group stretching | | 8:10 | Focused work: integrating the Self Model into your life | | 9:40 | Group review of accomplishments | | 10:00 | Participants depart | ## Focus Work Blocks ### 1.
