The wheel of life assessment is a simple exercise. You can use it to show whether your life is in balance or you can go deeper to discover areas you can improve. And actions you can take to move you towards your level 10 life.

Thriving your way
During the summer I reconsidered my digital life and that led to me asking myself if my life is balanced. Am I putting the correct amount of effort and time into the different parts of my life, or are some areas taking over to the detriment of others? I’ve realised it is not possible to do everything I want and by trying I’m creating stress. Does that sound familiar? My goal is to have my Continue Reading …
This month I’m sharing posts I’ve enjoyed reading on personal development. Although this is a topic that I’m very interested in, I haven’t seen many posts I’ve enjoyed so tend to focus on personal development books and therefore have built up a large pile of them (I’d love to know your thoughts about which one I should read next in my poll). I like to share the links I’ve enjoyed to highlight other sites you may Continue Reading …
When I first started this blog in 2007 it was called Blog to discovery; Revelations along the way to a simpler, happier and more successful life and included reviews of self improvement books I read such as Beat Stress and Fatigue and Making Happy People. I’ve kept aquiring books, but haven’t really been reading them, and when I do it is more of a quick flick through the pages without making any changes (or even Continue Reading …
A wheel of life aims to highlight the areas of your life that you need to give more attention (or areas where you need to give less) so you can work towards a balanced life. I like the approach because it is a simple graphical representation, so I started using the method on a monthly basis to track progress on my goals. I started giving scores based on how I felt about each area, but Continue Reading …
I have undertaken monthly reviews as well as wheel of life reviews for some time, however I felt I should be getting more out of these reviews to ensure I was working towards my goals. Although I think the wheel of life is a great tool to help develop your desired life balance, my concern was that it was subjective and therefore probably not a good monitoring tool. New wheel of life method To try Continue Reading …
I started drawing regular wheel of life diagrams in 2007, although it has been several months since my last one. I’ve been thinking about introducing them as a regular exercise again so I thought I should review the method for its usefulness before adding something else to my to do list. Background to wheel of life The idea behind the wheel of life exercise is to ensure there is balance in your life. By plotting Continue Reading …
Time really does go quickly when you’re busy and I can’t believe it has been a month since I last did this exercise. Unfortunately, because I’ve been so busy I haven’t been able to put the effort into progressing my wheel, however I feel most things are the same as last month although I have marked a few as slipping backwards. During the last month, I suffered a headache for almost a week, which I Continue Reading …
When things start getting difficult you know things do not progress as you would like, so subconsciously you stop measuring them. I can not believe that the last wheel of life review I did was over three months ago. Anyway, I’m back to measuring and it is reassuring to see that I have made some progress in the last few weeks. There has been an equal number of areas decreasing and increasing, but I feel Continue Reading …
UPDATE: here is my wheel of life review and my tips for using wheel of life Hmm, has anything changed since this time in September? I think if I haven’t made progress then I have in fact moved backwards because I’m not keeping the momentum and building on what I’ve already achieved. Therefore I have reduced my score for several areas. The one highlight is money. My husband and I were looking to move house, Continue Reading …
