Face it: How much life do you have left in weeks?

Count your weeks before they count you

This page isn’t here to scare you or depress you—it’s here to wake you up. Life is short, and the weeks pass faster than you think. By calculating your remaining time visually in weeks, months, and years, this page helps you understand the difference between life expectancy (LE*) and healthy life expectancy (HLE*). It’s a reminder to stop putting off taking care of yourself, so you can live as long as possible in good health. Use this moment to reflect, take action, and live fully—so you don’t reach the end with regrets.

* Life Expectancy (LE): It's the number of years you’re statistically expected to live—basically, how long your body can keep going before it calls it quits. It’s the theoretical finish line, but it doesn’t tell you how you’ll feel when you get there.
* Healthy Life Expectancy (HLE):It's the number of years you’ll live in good health—think of it as the difference between truly living and merely surviving. Sure, you might make it to 90, but will you still be dancing, hiking, and enjoying life? Or just counting pills and appointments? That’s the real question
The point is to live with a capable body and mind, not just to survive—because who wants to spend their final years shuffling around like a zombie waiting for the end?

To drive the point home, here are a few sobering stats about what you really have left:

You have lived x of your life. Make the remaining x truly count!

  • You have of life left in good health. (Tick-tock, make it count!)
  • You have of Christmases left in good health. (Better enjoy those holiday cookies!)
  • You have of weekends left in good health. (Time to make every one a mini-vacation!)
  • You have of days left in good health. (Don’t waste them scrolling!)

  • You have of life left. (No pressure, but the clock’s ticking!)
  • You have of Christmases left. (Start planning those gift lists wisely!)
  • You have of weekends left. (Netflix or adventure? Choose wisely!)
  • You have of days left. (Each one’s a gift, not just a Monday!)

How Much of That Time Is Really Yours?

You’ve just seen that you have days ( months) left to live in good health. Does that seem like a lot to you? Or maybe you think you can optimize those days later? The clock is ticking. Do you know how much of that time will you actually control?

Sleeping, eating, and personal hygiene are essential tasks. Those hours aren’t free. And what about the time spent in front of screens (phones, computers, TV)? How much of that precious free time are you really choosing to spend on things that matter to you? Let’s take a closer look.

Today, the biggest thief of our time is our screen usage. Let's put it into perspective: this time takes away from your truly free moments. Check your phone’s Digital Wellbeing section and estimate your average screen time per day. And don’t forget to add the hours spent binge-watching Netflix, looping through the news multiple times a day, or sitting in front of your computer. We only count screen time that are not related to work here. On average, you’re likely spending between 2 and 5 hours daily on screens. It’s time to stop letting these digital devices steal your time, or at least realizing how much they’re taking away from the limited life you have left.

How Many Hours Do You Spend on Screens Each Day?
average hours per day

How Many Hours Do You Spend at Work/School each Week?
hours per week (average)

This number will be averaged over the year by deducting the following data based on your country's statistics: x public holidays per year, x annual vacation days, x minutes of lunch break at work (already included in the time allocated to eating/cooking).
(The average number of hours worked each week, averaged over the year and used for calculations, is therefore x hours.) You have entered a custom value. Make sure you have deducted your annual vacation days, public holidays, and lunch break time at work (already included in the eating/cooking section).

Shocking, isn’t it? Now that you see the reality of your truly free time, take a moment to let it sink in.

Only x% of your remaining time is truly yours to spend as you choose.
That means you have only x days (x years), to live freely—barely enough time to get through your watchlist, let alone your dreams.


Now, look at how much of it will be consumed by screens.
You will spend x% of your remaining life — x days—staring at a phone, a TV, or a computer.

You might think your screen time costs nothing—social media is free, most TV subscriptions are affordable. But time isn’t free.
If you value your time at just $20 per hour, you will effectively spend $x per month on your screens.


Is every second spent on them truly worth it? Ask yourself and take action to plug the time leaks. Outsource what you can, silence all notifications on your phone, stop checking the news daily, resist the urge to refresh your emails, WhatsApp, or texts multiple times a day... Take back control of your time!
