A quarterly life audit is the boring kind of audit: once a quarter, you rate each part of your life 1 to 5, write one line about why, and decide what to keep and what to change before the next quarter starts. Most people never put those answers on the same sheet of paper. These two printable pages hold them. Page 1 is an eight-row table - each row gets an area name you write in (work, home, money, health, or whatever you're tracking this quarter), a 1-5 rating circle, and a note line. Page 2 is a keep-change-start box, a next-quarter box, and nothing else. Print it, write on it, reprint it next quarter. Below the sheet sits a checklist for a different kind of audit entirely - smart-contract code, not your life.
How to use this page: print at 100% scale - both pages come out on two sheets. Do page 1 in one sitting, about ten minutes: write an area name on each row, circle a rating for each, and write the one-line reason in the note column. Don't average the scores - eight separate circles tell you more than one blended number. Page 2 takes another five minutes and works best a day later, once the page-1 ratings have had time to settle.
Nothing on this paper decides anything for you. The rows hold the shape - which areas you're tracking, what you rated them, what you plan to keep or change - and your handwriting holds the facts. The gray row shows how a row reads, nothing more.
Eight areas, one rating circle each. Area names are written in - work, home, money, health, or whatever this quarter is about.

1 = that area dragged the quarter down. 5 = it carried its weight. The middle is where most rows land, and that's allowed.

One thing this quarter taught you:
The first start-line you'll act on, and when:
The gray row shows the shape of a life-area line: an area name, a circled number, one note. Nothing computes, nothing averages, and no row means anything until you write it. The note line matters more than it looks - "money: 3" is a feeling, "money: 3, ate the rent increase, savings flat" is something you can act on in the keep-change-start box.
This page reviews your own quarter on paper. The product below is a different tool with the same surname: a working checklist for reviewing EVM smart contracts, built from public registry entries and audit-practice patterns. If you write or ship contracts, it's the structured version of what this page does for a life area.
"A working checklist for reviewing EVM smart contracts: 126 checks across 10 categories, each with an id, a severity rating and a reference. Multi-chain scope: Ethereum, L2s, and cross-chain messaging patterns." - the product README
For more paper-based reviews, the self audit checklist template runs the same two-page habit on your accounts and subscriptions, the yearly review worksheet zooms out to twelve months, and the quarterly planner is where the next-quarter box points when the quarter begins.
Honest note: these two pages are a self-review sheet - a structure for writing down your own quarter in your own words. They are not a professional audit of anything and not a substitute for one; the ratings are opinions you circle about your own life, and a completed sheet records a quarter, it doesn't fix one. Nothing here is medical, financial or legal advice. The tips above are opinions from use, not research findings.
