I frequently remind my coaching clients (and myself) that the labels associated with the Wheel of Life are arbitrary. The ancient yogis called this “Santosha” – contentment with the way things are. I encourage you to approach this exercise from a very neutral place and accept life exactly as it exists in the present. A common trap is to label lower scores as “bad” and higher score as “good”. And, there’s all the scores in between, with five often being expressed as an uninspired “fine”. A score of one indicates that you’re thoroughly unsatisfied in this area and a score of ten indicates that this part of your life is off-the-charts amazing. The exercise is to assign a rating from one to ten for each of these areas. The Wheel of Life includes all major areas of life, typically: career, money, health, friends & family, significant other/romance, personal growth, fun & recreation and physical environment. Taking stock of your life and acknowledging and accepting where you are right now is a requisite first step to engaging in transformation. The most powerful and lasting approaches to growth and healing encompass all aspects of your being. Life is, by it’s very nature, multifaceted. For those of you who are new to this concept, the Wheel of Life is a coaching tool that allows you to take a visual snapshot of your life as it exists in the present moment. If you’ve ever worked with a life coach, you’re likely intimately familiar with the “Wheel of Life”.
