Life Choices Wheel Exercise
Many coaches use a Wheel of Life assessment to help people visualize their lives and where they might want improvement. I reviewed about 15 versions and created my own with the language that resonated best for me.
You can use my Life Choices Wheel by clicking on the link below and saving a copy for yourself. Please do not remove the Sparkling Leaders credit.
The gameboard was created in Google Sheets. The wheel was created in Procreate on my iPad.
Make a copy of Life Choices Wheel deck for your own use.
Pick one of the quadrants and ask your client to tell you how fulfilled they are with that area from 0 (I am not fulfilled at all and need to make an immediate change) to 10 (I feel fulfilled and while there are things I could do differently, this is an area I want to maintain instead of finding ways to change).
Move a blue game piece to the number they gave you and record any reasons in the grey notes area. I also record the date. Repeat with the remaining 7 quadrants.
After all 8 quadrants have been evaluated, ask which areas your client wants to maintain and move the purple stars to those quadrants.
Review the ones they want to work on. Have them pick one main focus and move the green star to that quadrant.
Ask them about their readiness to change or attitude towards being able to make a change. Record that with the dark blue dot on the scale in the center of the wheel.
See the example in the next slide.
Let me know if you have any suggestions or learn anything fun while using it!
