Time is easy to count
By Thursday afternoon most leaders can tell you how many hours they have worked. Far fewer can say which of those hours left them with more energy than they started with.
The audit asks for 5 minutes at the end of each working day for one week. Each activity gets a score from −2 to +2 and a note of what changed: body, feelings, focus or sense of purpose. The pattern at the end of the week is yours to read.
What is in it
- A short introduction. Where the idea comes from, and what the audit is not.
- Template A, the daily log. One page per day: activity, hours, energy score and dimension.
- Template B, the weekly summary. What gives energy, what takes it, and up to 3 changes.
- The user guide. 8 steps, from preparing the log to doing the audit again a month later.
The audit gives you evidence. You decide what to change.
Who is it for
Three readers each at a point where priorities are shifting.
The founder
Everything has felt urgent for a while. The log shows which parts of the work still give you something back.
The senior leader
Back-to-back meetings, every week. Worth knowing which ones drain you and which do not.
The newly promoted
New work, new rhythm. A week of honest scores shows what the role is costing.

A week of honest scores often says more about how a role is going than a performance review does. Bring yours to a first conversation.
