WHAT THIS IS
This ‘one-page’ reflection tool helps you take stock of your personal life — not just your career or working life. It combines ideas from multiple sources, including Professor Martin Seligman’s PERMA model of wellbeing and Tony Robbins’ “Wheel of Life”, blended with the principles and practices of Be More Strategic.
It is designed to help you see your life as a system, with multiple areas that may need more clarity, intention, and / or balance. Because strategy doesn’t just belong in businesses and boardrooms; it belongs in the way you live.
WHY IT MATTERS
Most people spend more time planning a holiday than planning their life.
And yet having a life strategy gives you direction, focus, and meaning, helping you make more conscious, deliberate choices rather than reactive ones. It connects who you are, what matters most, and how you spend your time and energy.
When you have a personal strategy:
- You feel clearer about your purpose and priorities
- You balance achievement and wellbeing
- You build a life by design, not by default
HOW TO USE THIS TOOL
HOW TO USE THIS TOOL
1. Draw (or print) a simple circle divided into 8 segments — your personal Wheel of Life.
2. Label each segment with the key life domains below.
3. Rate your current level of satisfaction or fulfilment in each area from 1 (low) to 10 (high) by shading inwards from the centre.
4. Step back and look at your “wheel.” How smooth or bumpy is your ride right now? Anything standing out? Any patterns? How might this have looked 6-12 months ago?
