Sit quietly and reflect on the following questions and jot down the answers to each:
1. What skills do I have? 2. What are my strengths? 3. What are my weaknesses? 4. What are my personal values? 5. What do I enjoy most about my work? 6. What are my work based achievements? 7. What areas would I like to develop further? 8. What would an ideal day consist of? 9. What motivates me? 10. What don't I enjoy and/or de-motivates me?

Complete two Balance Wheels: • One for your Life Balance • One for your Career Balance
Each wheel should have eight segments, the centre of the wheel is a score of
0 and the edge a score of 10. Rank each segment between 0-10 and draw a line to create a new outer edge (see example on next slide)
Choose the titles for each segment that best describe your Life or Career: examples could be Life: Physical Environment, Fun, Personal growth, Romance, Partner, Friends, Family,
Health, Money (income and savings/debt), Work etc. Career: Income, Enjoyment, Respect, Challenge, Satisfaction,Achievement, Experience,
Skills, Stretch, etc.
