Calc time between users

[Si_7777]

Hoping someone can help.

I am trying to calculate time between actions taken.  

For example my table below I have a simple dax expression to calculate the time-taken within the action (Start -End time)

But I'd like to calc time between moving to the next action. 

For example user 169 first action for the day ends at 8:19 and the next action starts at 8:27 a time diff of 19 minutes.

I'd like to do this for every user within a day.

I d like to do this so I can average that time over a day.

If the issue still persists, we kindly request you to share the sample data in a workable format such as text, an Excel file, or a PBIX file with sample data instead of screenshots. Additionally, please include the expected output. This will enable us to assist you more effectively.

@Si_7777 See my article on Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) which uses EARLIER: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Mean-Time-Between-Failure-MTBF-and-Power-BI/ba-p/3395....
The basic pattern is:
Column = 
  VAR __Current = [Value]
  VAR __PreviousDate = MAXX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Date] < EARLIER('Table'[Date])),[Date])

  VAR __Previous = MAXX(FILTER('Table',[Date]=__PreviousDate),[Value])
RETURN
 ( __Current - __Previous ) * 1.
