Wheel of Life

October 22, 20251 min read

“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven."

- Ecclesiastes 3:1

Initial thoughts...

Most people chase improvement without knowing where they’re starting from. The Wheel of Life offers a panoramic view—showing which areas of life roll smoothly and which create drag. Awareness precedes alignment.


The Framework

The wheel is divided into core areas: career, finances, relationships, health, personal growth, spirituality, recreation, and environment. Each is rated 1-10 for satisfaction.

Seeing Your Shape

If one area scores high and another near zero, the wheel wobbles. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s noticing imbalance.

Questions for Reflection

  • Where am I thriving?

  • Where am I tolerating?

  • What’s one action that would raise the lowest score by one point?

Leadership Application

Teams benefit from the same exercise—replace “life area” with “department” or “initiative.” Clarity precedes calibration.


Closing thoughts...

You can’t steer what you haven’t seen. The Wheel of Life reminds you that growth requires visibility before velocity.


What to do about it...
