Lifecycle stage sets our priorities, determining how we spend each day.

They were obtained from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ new American Time Use Survey upon special request. The extensive comparisons of time use by lifecycle stage included in the book are also not available from the federal government. New Strategist’s statisticians analyzed the raw time use data to produce the percentages of people participating in activities, the indexes, and the rankings—each of which reveals significant differences in time use by lifecycle stage.
