The Wheel of Life is a classic coaching tool, adapted here for teenagers. It gives you a snapshot of your life right now: how happy you are, on a scale from 0 to 10, across 8 areas that matter at your age.
How to work with it
- For each area, choose a score from 0 to 10 (0 = not happy at all, 10 = really good).
- Jot down a few short thoughts for each area: something you notice, a feeling, an intention.
- Look at the wheel. The uneven shape shows you where things feel balanced and where they need some attention.
- Save the wheel as a session. Next time, see how things have changed.
What to look for in the result
- The area with the lowest score — often this is what's holding you back, the thing that affects all the others.
- The shape of the wheel — whether it could "roll" smoothly or not. Balance comes from the scores being close to one another across areas.
- The area you want to move first — even a single point can set off a chain of change.
