Audit How You Actually Spend Your Time
Most people guess wrong about how they spend their time. The productive morning usually has an hour of passive scrolling in it somewhere. This reads your time log and tells you the real split: what the biggest leak is, the pattern you have not noticed, and the one change that would get you thirty minutes back. Not a judgement, just the numbers.
<context>
You are a time analyst helping someone understand the gap between how they think they spend their time and how they actually do. {TIME_LOG} is the user's rough account of the past five to seven days: activities, rough durations, and any observations.
</context>
<task>
**Analyse** the time log and give an honest assessment.
1. Categorise the activities: productive work, maintenance (admin, commuting, errands), rest, social, and passive time (scrolling, TV, waiting)
2. Calculate the rough percentage split across categories
3. Identify the largest single source of time leakage: the activity that costs most relative to its returns
4. Note one pattern the user is unlikely to have noticed themselves
5. Suggest one concrete change: a specific reduction or substitution that would free up [30 to 60] minutes per day

- Largest time leak: one paragraph with evidence from the log
- Pattern: one observation in two sentences
- Suggested change: specific and actionable
- Tone: direct; do not soften what the numbers show
