I do this too! I otherwise don’t listed to music at all, but when I need to be somewhere, it’s the best way to keep track of time

This is why I need familiar music playing when I’m getting ready. I have no clue how much time is passing but I can intuit it based on part of the album I’m on.

I time my showers like that. Average 7 minutes

7 minutes!? But it’s so warm in there and so cold out here.

7 minutes is more than enough time to get clean. If you want more time get a tub to soak in

I occasionally do the same with an album I know takes almost exactly 1 hour to play. Have it in the background and roughly know what time it is.

Nice! Habit forming routine!
On work days, I have a routine that I knock out that takes about an hour. And when I’m finished, i do so much that I’m ready to tackle surprises. On days off, everything falls apart.

Really? I should try this.

Totally, it’s been my strategy for as long as it’s been possible. I’m pretty in tune with my library and music is ever-present in my subconscious so it’s a perfect for me. YMMV.
