ADHD Executive Function Tools

A structured look across eight life domains — setting direction
for the month ahead.

Where This Tool Helps

Eight domains. Most people fill in the easy ones first — Career and Finance get clear prose while Health and Recreation end up with single words or blank space. The pattern is predictable: attention goes to where the pressure is, and the rest gets deferred.

What this tool surfaces is less a vision and more a reveal. When you look at the completed grid, the domains with the most words are usually the ones already consuming you. The ones with the least are often where the real tension lives — not because nothing matters there, but because ADHD makes it harder to plan for things without deadlines or external accountability.

The exercise is worth doing even — especially — when you don’t feel like you have a vision. A half-filled grid is information. A blank Health quadrant after three months of feeling drained is a signal.

The steps below are designed to work against the pattern of filling only what comes easily and skating past the rest.

How to Use This Worksheet

  1. Set a time limit per domain. Give yourself two to three minutes per box before moving on. ADHD planning tends to collapse into hyperfocus on one or two areas. A time limit forces a complete scan.
  2. Write what you want — not what you think you should want. This is a vision tool, not a performance review. The Recreation box matters as much as the Career box.
  3. Go back to the domains you left blank or thin. After the first pass, return to any box with less than two sentences. The resistance you feel there is worth noting.
  4. Date this page. Monthly Vision is most useful as a comparison document. A grid from three months ago, next to today’s, shows movement — and what hasn’t moved.
  5. Bring it to your next session. The domains where your vision is clearest are not always the ones your coaching focus should be on. Your coach may see a different pattern than you do.

Before Your Next Session

Take a few minutes with your completed grid before bringing it to coaching.

Now that you can see it:

Look at the two domains you filled in least. Not the ones you left blank by accident — the ones you noticed yourself skipping. What would it cost you to have a clearer picture there?

What is the first thing you would actually need to do differently this month if that domain got real attention?
