Worksheet

The Six-Room Audit

A room-by-room worksheet for seeing where life is leaking before you choose repairs.

Cover of Build a Life That Doesn't Eat You Alive by Pierce Kastleton

What this tool does

The Six-Room Audit is the printable skeleton of the Audit of Doom. It keeps the categories visible so “everything is wrong” can become body, money, space, time, people, and mind.

Fill out one room only. One honest room is more useful than six imaginary ones.

Bad-week version

Use it when

  • You need the audit without the whole chapter.
  • One room of life keeps spilling into all the others.
  • You want a fast worksheet to return to monthly.

How to use it

  1. Write one sentence under each room.
  2. Mark bleeding, draining, or ghost.
  3. Choose one bleeding item.
  4. Choose one draining item.
  5. Choose one ghost to stop feeding.

Worksheet version

Copy these prompts into a notebook, notes app, spreadsheet, or the nearest envelope that is already judging you.

Common traps

  • Using “everything” as a category.
  • Listing aspirations instead of actual problems.
  • Trying to fix while still mapping.
