         The Wheel of Life

         The underlying theme of this session is that everything you will ever need to be, have and do,
         whatever you want in life, including the desire for happiness, is to be found inside of you, not in
         the physical presence of another person, or in the material possessions you may acquire, such
         as bigger houses or nicer cars. Your true happiness, the only happiness that is everlasting is right
         there inside each and every one of you.

         Customise the Wheel and adapt it to whatever thorny problem you are having. Grab a blank
         coaching wheel and add the 10 biggest things stressing you out right now. Score out of 10 how
         stressful each thing is. Or, label the 10 segments with the key things that make you a good mom/
         dad/leader/friend. Again, score yourself according to how well you think you are doing in each
         area. Then derive an action plan to move forwards.

         Here are 12 Wheel of Life Questions to Help:
         1.   How do you feel about your life as you look at your Wheel?

         2.   Are there any surprises for you?
         3.   How do you currently spend time in these areas?

         4.   How would you like to spend time in these areas?
         5.   What would make that a score of 10?

         6.   What would a score of 10 look like?
         7.   Which of these categories would you most like to improve?

         8.   How could you make space for these changes in your life?
         9.   What help and support might you need from others to make changes and be more
              satisfied with your life?
         10.  And what change do you want to make first?
         11.  What is the smallest step you could take to get started?

         12.  If there was one key action that would begin to bring everything into balance, what would
              it be?
