Wheel of Life Audit
A way to rate key areas of your life and visualise it as segments of a radar-chart/circle/wheel etc. You evaluate key areas of your life and give them a value between 0 and 10. The idea is that you rate where you think you are now, or how aligned you are compared to where you want to be. The chart allows you to see whats happening in a simple and concise way.
The segments or life areas are completely customisable. You can have more or less than the example above. You get to choose what are important to you.
The following is a list of example life areas to monitor as a starting point.
- Mental Health
- Physical Health
- Spiritual Health
- Romance
- Family
- Friends
- Career
- Finances
- Personal Growth
When Ali Abdaal does a life audit using the Wheel of Life he likes to add a separate entry below to show the joy he is feeling during everything he is doing. This highlights how much enjoyment you feel while you've been working towards where you want to get to.
By completing a wheel of life audit it allows you to see very clearly the areas in your life you need to spend more time on or if you rate everything as a 10, this means:
- You are making progress towards the things that are meaningful to you.
- You are in balance across all the different areas of your life (because they all have the same score)
- You are enjoying the journey along the way.
Basically you are killing it on your journey to reaching your goals and enjoying the process of getting there! What could be better than that?!
