Hello Christelle,

What are you excited about this week?

Me? I’m excited to get deeper into “designing my life” for 2025… so that I can then take action to ward “building” that life!

And if you missed last Friday’s Coaching-Infused Conversation Sample on this topic, here is a little recap… but note that a written summary can’t replace the feelings and sensations you get when going through the reflection “on the spot”, as you do when attending a Coaching-Infused Conversation! – So, I hope to see you at one of my other events!

So, let’s have a “coaching-infused” moment of reflection…

Imagine that your Life is a wheel… and a perfect life would be a perfectly round wheel that smoothly rolls along… But life is not perfect… and your wheel has plenty of bumps, some smaller than others…

First, imagine your perfect Life, drawing a circle and dividing it into 8 pieces (or categories of your life). And identify the 8 things (categories / areas) that are the most important to YOU in that perfect Life (as you see it now) and allocate them to each piece of the circle…

  • For me, these are: physical health, well-being, social circle, finances, accommodation, leisure, learning, and my business
  • Feel free to make up your own categories

Then, assess your level of SATISFACTION (not progress) of where you are now compared to your perfect life, on a scale of 0-10 (0 being the center of the circle and representing “no satisfaction”, while 10 is the outer line of your circle and represents full satisfaction) for each category… and draw a line representing that number in the corresponding piece of your circle…

  • For example, my level of satisfaction with my physical health is 8, is 4 for my well-being (“thanks” to all those thoughts running around in my head!), and is 7 for my social circle…

That gives you your actual “Wheel of Life”… It’s likely that it’s not that smooth… because your current satisfaction level goes up and down depending on the categories…

And now, identify 3 categories you want to improve your satisfaction level with – for the next few months, or for the whole of 2025... Personally, I find this the most difficult part… There are often 1 or 2 categories that are obvious – like developing my business and actively improving my well-being (because it has such an impact on my other categories!). But the 3rd one tends to be more difficult to decide on… so I listen to my heart… and, this year, my heart chose leisure – because I want to enjoy my life!!!

Now, what insights and learnings are you getting from this reflection?

And now, what’s ONE action you WILL take following this “coaching-infused” reflection?

  • Take some time to think about it before redoing this exercise?
  • Check my Events page for a “live” version?
  • Decide on which categories you want to improve this year?

Already know that you won’t take action, even though you really want it?

  • Because it’s not that easy to hold yourself accountable;
  • Because it’s hard to do it on your own;
  • Because “life” just takes over…
