Tracking with a Goal in Mind

Please select from the list below something that you would like to better understand and possibly change or impact. For example, you might want to understand the highs and lows of your mood and make changes that will result in fewer "down" days.

eating choices
family relationships
mental sharpness
mood
physical activity
stress

Now, keeping what you just selected in mind, what would you want to track to understand that thing? For example, if you chose mood, what would you want to track to understand the highs and lows of your mood? What information could you use to impact your mood? Remember to only check items that you, personally, would want to track.
