Life & Work Transition

Sometimes we feel like life passes too quickly, with a too-brief childhood, and too-brief schooling. Sometimes we find ourselves in a place in life or work we are not quite happy with, and are not sure what to do about it.

Whether you work from home as an entrepreneur, or work in an office as part of a corporation, your work impacts your life.The same can be said in reverse: various aspects of your life affect your work.

Not sure? Take a snapshot of your life by completing this simple assessment:

The eight sections of the wheel of life represent different aspects of life. Seeing the center of the wheel as one, and the outer edge as ten (highest level), rank your level of satisfaction with each life section and draw a curved line to create a new outer edge. The new perimeter represents your wheel of life. If this were a real wheel, how bumpy would the ride be?
