Wheel of Life 

Is your life balanced the way you would like it to be?  Is the way you are spending your time in alignment with your values and priorities?  You can use this wheel to evaluate how you are spending your time and to determine if want to make any shifts.

 

Wheel of Life Example

 

This wheel represents all the waking time you have available.  Select the activities you currently balance in your life.  Draw the sections (pie wedges) on the wheel and assign percentages to represent the relative amount of time you spend on each activity (assigning percentages is optional).  Then mark the pie wedges you would like to reduce (in red) and the pie wedges you would like to increase (in green).
