✦ From Time Blindness to On-Time ✦
A Self-Coaching Workbook for ExMormons with ADHD
Do you constantly run late, even when you really mean to be on time?
Do you beat yourself up for time blindness — the same way church leaders once did?
This workbook is here to change that.
Why This Workbook?
For ADHD brains, punctuality isn’t a moral issue. It’s a skill — one that can be practiced and learned. But if you grew up Mormon, chances are lateness was tied to obedience, righteousness, and worthiness. That kind of conditioning doesn’t just disappear when you leave.
This workbook helps you separate shame from skill-building, so you can stop seeing lateness as a personal flaw and start approaching it as a practice you can grow in, step by step.
What’s Inside
✨ Your Time Story → Reflect on your history with lateness, shame, and Mormon conditioning.
✨ What’s Worked / What Hasn’t → Spot patterns in your past so you can build on strengths instead of repeating old frustrations.
✨ Toolbox Menu → Discover ADHD-friendly supports (timers, rituals, countdowns, reverse planning) to experiment with.
✨ Initial Time Blindness Investigation → A one-time snapshot of how your brain experiences time right now.
✨ Experiment & Reflection Pages → Ongoing worksheets to test strategies, track what works, and adjust.
✨ Daily On-Time Planner → A fill-in page to practice punctuality skills with real events, day by day.
How It Works
Start with awareness → Learn your patterns and separate them from old church shame.
Experiment gently → Try new tools and reflect on what actually works for your brain.
Practice daily → Use the On-Time Planner to plan ahead and get closer to calm, confident arrival.
Who It’s For
ExMormons navigating ADHD time blindness.
Anyone who struggles with lateness but wants to build self-trust without shame.
Former perfectionists who are ready to ditch “I’m failing” and embrace “I’m practicing.”
The Promise
By the end, you won’t magically “fix” lateness — but you will have a process for getting closer, calmer, and kinder to yourself every time you show up.
Because punctuality isn’t about worthiness anymore.
It’s about freedom, peace, and self-trust.
