I'm heavily interested in instrumental rationality -- that is, optimizing my life by 1) increasing my enjoyment per moment, 2) increasing the quantity of moments, and 3) decreasing the cost per moment.
I've taught myself a decent amount and improved my life with: personal finance, nutrition, exercise, interpersonal communication, basic item maintenance, music recording and production, sexuality and relationships, and cooking.
If you're interested in possible ways of improving your life, I might have direct experience to help, and I can probably point you in the right direction if not. Feel free to ask me anything!
Do you use any quantitative self tools for this? If so, could you elaborate on your data tracking/analysis processes?
Yes, but incompletely. I'll track things precisely until a habit is established, at which point I stop tracking everything and check-in every once in a while to make sure I'm still on track. Some things I keep track of consistently, such as my budget, weight lifting numbers, bodyweight, etc.
The process is different for different things. I usually start with a Google Drive spreadsheet, and then experiment with other more specific apps if they're better than spreadsheets (they rarely are). If you have any more specific questions, I'd be glad to answer them.
