The wheel of life
Rate eight areas of your life from 0 to 10, honestly, and the shape that appears tells you more than any single number. A balanced life is a round wheel; most of us are surprised by how lopsided ours is, and which spoke is dragging.
Average: 5.0 / 10
Balance beats optimizing one spoke
The wheel makes a quiet point: a life scoring 9 on career and 2 on health and relationships does not roll. Progress usually means lifting the lowest spoke, not maxing the highest. Revisit it every few months; the shape changing over time is the real signal. It pairs with the compounding view of growth in learning and growth.
