Want the technique Tony Robbins uses to design his life?
It’s taught by the most expensive executive coaches in the world.
Here’s how it works (and how you can use it):
The closer life feels like to play, the more we feel we are thriving.
To get into flow in all aspects of your life, you need a good scorecard.
Enter the Wheel of Life.
The Wheel of Life is a simple but powerful tool to assess your life.
Many executive coaches have new clients complete this in the first meeting.
The purpose of the Wheel of Life
Determine how satisfied you are with the different areas of your life so you can decide where you want to make changes.
How to use it
First, rename any section to something more relevant to your life.
For example, some people like to change Health to the following subcategories:
- Nutrition
- Strength
- Flexibility
- Stress
- Sleep
Zoom in to find the right words and level of granularity for you.
Focus on a certain area
Step 2 - Consider the outer edge of the wheel 10/10 - shade each section to your level of satisfaction.
After this assessment, most people do not have a round wheel.
Some sections are more complete than others.
Round wheels roll best.
Pick no more than 2 areas to focus on.
It is hard to make improvements in many places at once.
Visualize greatness
At this stage of the exercise I like to remember one of my favorite quotes:
“Life punishes the vague wish but rewards the specific ask.” - Tim Ferriss
With that quote in mind, ask yourself:
What does a 9 of 10 look like in each area?
If you can determine what a 9-10 is in each area of the wheel, you have defined what winning YOUR game looks like.
Pick a reasonable timeframe for your goals.
Treat getting to a 10 in each area like a game.
Resist the pull of other peoples’ scorecards.
Integrate and Play
I love to do the exercise with a partner or a close friend.
When other people you love know your dreams they can help.
Repeat this exercise 1-2 times per year to track progress.
Go play.
