I like this exercise because it gives a nice overview of strengths and weaknesses in the balance of my life. There were a few things I didn't know where to put--mental/emotional health--does that go under health and fitness? Does spiritual growth go under personal growth? Does mental and emotional well-being crossover between health and fitness and personal growth?
I'd like to spend more time thinking about this, but when I spend too
much time blogging, I feel as if I am slighting other things that I
need to do.
This exercise generates a list--a sort of to-do list based on eliminating dissatisfactions and problems. I would like to compare that list to one generated the normal way. That would be interesting. It has the advantage of being fairly balanced.
Note: This is a wonderful addition to my STEP 4! YAY!

Ooo! I like your wheel. You obviously spent more time on yours, than I did mine. And, got more out of this exercise than me. I probably should have been more specific. Maybe if I look at it again, I'll find some things that I should be doing that I'm not already. I'm going to make a to-do list. Maybe that will help me.
I lumped mental health in with physical health, and spiritual growth in with personal growth. For me, working on personal growth, as in self awareness, spiritually, and intellectually/philosophically, will help my health both physically and mentally.
It will also help me with my career and my career goals of helping others, as well as learning to communicate with my family. Right now, blogging is one of the main tools I'm using to learn more and get information for personal growth. You seem to really be getting a lot from it, too. Maybe you shouldn't feel so guilty about spending time on this.
BTW, love your sense of humor ;]
Oh, now see, I thought yours was better, neater.
I am going through an important period of re-evaluation now that I am 62 and a crone. So this IS good for me, but I feel guilty when I think Ia m neglecting important things--like going to the bank! LOL!
I need to do that NOW--or pretty quick.
I am glad that doing this is good for you in some way, because it is MUCH more fun for ME having YOU as a partner! YAY!
I am learning so much by participating in this blog, that thank you doesn't seem adequate. I am so grateful to be your partner. And, you're right, it is more fun :D
YAY! THANK YOU for doing this with me! YAY!
