What Your Week Costs You

Most high-achieving parents think their problem is time. It usually isn't. It's allocation — where your best cognitive hours go, and what they're actually buying.

The Allocation Audit maps your week the way you'd map a portfolio. You'll list eight recurring commitments, score each on impact and cognitive cost, and plot them on a grid. Seven minutes, with your calendar open. Most people finish surprised by one number: the hours a year going to the things that cost them the most and return the least.
