EXERCISE | The Wheel of Life
A blank Wheel Of Life is printed on this page. You can see from the example on the previous
page that if the solid line represented the current Wheel Of Life on which your life rotated, little
wonder the ride would feel so bumpy! If the line represents an ideal picture of happiness in each
of the important areas of your life, for the first time, you can see visually, the gaps between
where you are and where you would like to be.
Not only does the wheel help you quickly assess your current levels of life balance, you can also
use it to clarify priorities for goal-setting. You can also use it for a regular (eg. quarterly) life check
-in and to review and assess your progress. See the guidance notes below and on the next page.
Consider the key roles and areas of your life.
Give yourself a score out of ten for each role and area, placing an x alongside the score and in
line with the respective role or area. Then join up the crosses.
Here are a few questions to prompt your thinking:
· Do you experience the correct balance of certainty and comfort alongside variety and
spontaneity in each of your roles and areas?
· Do your relationships and the people involved bring the correct balance to your life to
result in the happiness you seek?
