Following on from my blog post Where Are You, here’s a very simple way of visualising where you are in every area of your life.

I love visuals and colour which is why I love visualising where I am in life through colour.

The above image is a scale that is widely used for mental health evaluation. You can use this for your Wheel of Life which will give you an effective snapshot of how you are functioning in all areas of your life.

You simply assign the appropriate heading and corresponding colour to each area of your life.

Not only will this give you a very colourful Wheel of Life, it will also highlight the areas of your life that require the most attention.

Of course we’d all love to be thriving and excelling in all areas of our lives but that’s just not realistic.

Life doesn’t work like that.

There is always some challenges, some struggles, some obstacles to be overcome.

My goal isn’t to be excelling and thriving in all areas. I just want to stay out of crisis mode and if I find myself there, that I move out of it as quickly as possible.

I also don’t want to be struggling in any area for too long.

Life’s inevitable ups and downs means we will be in crisis, we will struggle, we will just be surviving in some areas – the magic is how we deal with life when we find ourselves in these places.

It’s most likely that your Wheel of Life will have a mixture of all colours, you more than likely will be thriving in some areas and struggling in others.

When you have assigned colours to all areas of your life, your Wheel of Life may look something like this. 

No matter where you are, it is just your starting point.

Where you go depends on your goals and how much work you put into them.
