A time audit is a simple tool where you track how you spend your time in 30 minute blocks for one week. By writing down what you’re actually doing (vs. what you planned to do), you can spot hidden patterns—like how long tasks really take, when distractions show up, and where energy dips happen. For people with ADHD, this is especially powerful because it turns vague feelings of “losing time” into clear data you can work with. Once you see the patterns, it’s easier to adjust routines, reduce time drains, and build a schedule that actually matches your brain and lifestyle.
