THE SHORT ANSWER

A priorities audit compares what you say matters with where your time and commitments currently go. It is a snapshot for discussion, not a grade on your life. The aim is to notice one mismatch you can address realistically.

Put the question in context

An exercise is useful only when it serves a goal and makes sense to the person using it. Written reflection, values clarification, decision mapping, rehearsal, and small-action experiments are possible tools to discuss with Luis. They are not presented as confirmed certifications, proprietary programs, or a required sequence of sessions. You can ask why an exercise is being suggested, how it could be adapted, and what would count as a useful result.

Choose the tool after you name the purpose

Before adopting a method, describe the problem it is supposed to help you think through. Then consider the simplest format that could produce useful information. Someone may prefer speaking to writing, or a brief practical experiment to a lengthy worksheet. Discuss those preferences openly. The point is not to complete an impressive exercise; it is to make a clearer choice or practice an action relevant to the goal.

  1. State the purpose of the exercise and check that it connects to your actual question.
  2. Choose a format and amount of effort that fit your preferences and present capacity.
  3. Review what the exercise helped you notice and decide whether to adapt it or use a different approach.

TRY THIS BEFORE YOU REACH OUT

One exercise for this question

Review a typical week and group commitments into chosen priorities, necessary obligations, and automatic yeses. Select one automatic yes to reconsider and one priority that needs a clearer place in the schedule.

After trying it, note what became clearer, what is still uncertain, and what you would like to discuss. You can adapt the exercise or stop if it does not fit; completing a worksheet is not the goal.
