I don’t think that this is very useful. I actually did this for a day or so, but the amount of mental effort that it took to do it was definitely not worth it. I would probably limit it to one level of monitoring, considering that you don’t have a huge amount of computing power to work with.
During the London meetup we also mentioned that this self-questioning may be related to procrastination, and by self-observation I tend to put more weight on it as an explanation.

I find myself doing this with any spare computing power I have. Is it worth the effort to stop?
