A REFLECTION ON LIFE List 20 items in your life which you are not completely happy with. The issues should cover the following parts of your life: Relationship Career Family Health Wealth Personal Friends Habits Other Once the list is completed, rank each item for the level of dissatisfaction this particular item provides. The rankings are from 1 to 10 where 1 is a low rating and 10 being the highest rating i.e. the greatest dissatisfaction.
REVIEW YOUR FINDINGS Choose and list 6 items from the previous list which have been ranked 8 or higher. With this list provide a detailed description of why, how and when these issues arise. Describe also how you feel when these issues are active.
ENJOYMENT IN LIFE List 12 items which bring you true happiness and joy. These items should cover the following parts of your life: Relationship Career Family Health Wealth Personal Friends Habits Other Once the list is completed, rank each item for the level of satisfaction this particular item provides. The rankings are from 1 to 10 where 1 is a low rating and 10 being the highest rating i.e. the greatest satisfaction.
REVIEW YOUR FINDINGS Choose and list 6 items from the previous list which have been ranked 8 or higher. With this list provide a detailed description of why, how and when these items exist. Describe also how you feel when these issues are active.
WHAT CAN YOU CHANGE After detailing and reviewing both the items in your life which bring you dissatisfaction and satisfaction please list 8 items which you can change and which will bring happiness at a satisfaction level greater that 8. It is important to be very honest with yourself in this process. This list of eight items will be created as a composite of the items you are dissatisfied with and those items you are satisfied with. This could include a change to an item which brings you dissatisfaction, or potentially an increase of an item which brings happiness. Please note it is not important to labor over getting a equal number of changeable items from each list, it is however important to identify items which can be changed and which you consciously rate as the most appropriate 8 items for changing.
KNOW THYSELF While the information gathered thus far is thorough and covers many aspect of your life, we must clearly not take on a large number of life goal changes at once as the ability to effectively complete and handle this level of change may be difficult. We will now rank the Change Items from the previous page from 1 to 10, 1 being the least important to 10 being the most important to you at this stage. From this exercise we will then determine the 3 life aims you would like to focus on initially. After having ranked and selected the 3 new life goals ranked closest to 10, we will commence with the first goal and take you through a detailed process of developing and implementing the change actions to achieve the goal outcome.
From the list above select the 3 highest ranking life change items. These will form the basis of your new life goals. The remainder of this pro forma material will be dedicated to the successful completion of these items- one at a time, or consecutively at your discretion.
REVIEW YOUR LIFE AIM The remainder of this workbook will be dedicated to fulfilling Life Aim 1. Build/Print additional workbooks from this material for Life Aim’s 2 and 3.
Review this Life Aim and determine at which level you are currently dealing with the progress of this life aim. It is important to establish what stage of achievement you are currently at with this Life Aim as this will help us establish an accurate action plan. Tick the appropriate selection
From your selection above describe the current state of this life aim and it’s importance to you in approximately fifty words.
TAKE ACTION List eight genuine actions which you believe are achievable and will result in the successful life aim outcome. Describe in detail how you can fulfill each action.

THE FUTURE
Set a date in the future
where you will expect the successful accomplishment of the life aim.
Write an imaginary letter from three months past the date above. The letter to be written to yourself detailing how you believe the changes in your life have been fulfilled, how you went about achieving the life aim and how your life has changed. Think of any hurdles you may have encountered and how you overcame them. Detail the feeling of success which comes with the accomplishment of the Life Aim, and specify your journey to get there. A LETTER FROM THE FUTURE
THE DETAIL We have established an understanding of your needs and wants, some potential limitations or hurdles, and we have set a future perspective of the achievement of the Life Aim. With this knowledge we can now get started on defining the actions required. This detail will be based on the 8 actions you have selected and detailed previously (page 10) as most appropriate to achieving the Life Aim. There will be eight detail pages to complete :
THE DETAIL 2 :
THE DETAIL 3 :
THE DETAIL 4 :

TACKLING YOUR THOUGHTS During the action phase you may encounter some personal resistance, this may be due to the difficult nature of achieving the determined Life Aim, or due to factors beyond your direct personal control. To counter these potential disturbances we will develop a suite of Positive Thought Statements (PTS) which you can utilize when completing each action. Here are some examples : ACTION : Complete my studies with an average pass score over 85% PTS : Having achieved a pass score of greater than 85% will give me greater career choice and more financial independence. ACTION : Apply for the position in Management and get it. PTS : I am the best candidate, I have the skills to do the best job and I will be a successful and respected manager. List one Positive Thought Statement for each of the eight actions :
REVIEW YOUR LIFE AIM By now, you may be thinking this is a lot of work to achieve the Life Aim. It is important to recognize if achievement of the Life Aim was easy you would already have achieved it. Yes, there is a requirement for time and effort, but, you must consider the effort worthwhile. To ensure this, we will detail 3 Positive Thought Statements (PTS) covering your Life Aim. It is these three statements which will provide you with the encouragement to put in the effort to achieve the desired life aim.
Review these Positive Though Statements regularly to maintain your commitment and focus. You may consider reviewing them daily, or placing them in a visual position which will keep you goal oriented towards success. START The foundations are now set! You may have already started fulfilling the actions as set previously in accordance with the expected start dates. If you have not yet started, select a suitable date and use this as a marker point for the commencement of this Life Aim achievement exercise, then start by implementing and fulfilling your actions as detailed.
Throughout the process you will be referring to your ‘Detail sheets’ to ensure you remain on track. Please ensure these are completed thoroughly and the process is diligently followed. ARE WE THERE YET? In this section we review the process regularly to identify a number of important factors : 1. Are we still on track? 2. Have we identified anything new we should now resolve? 3. Have we completed planned actions? 4. Have we celebrated milestones? 5. Any new information. 6. Are you managing your feelings? I have included four review sheets for use throughout the journey.

HELP How’s your progress? Are you completing the assigned actions? Have you identified any impassable road blocks. Is your confidence in tack and you are getting closer to achieving your Life Aim? Help can come from a variety of areas. Here’s a list to review;
How are your emotions? Take some time now to stop negative thoughts, to implement strategies to maintain focus and confidence. Do some research on your goal or aim, learn as much as you can.
LIST COMPLETED ACTIONS Progress is one of the most satisfying feelings you will have during the journey of achieving your Life Aim’s. Take the opportunity to recognize you have successfully completed the actions you committed to undertake. You are closer to achieving you goal each time an action is completed.
SET BACKS Only complete this page if you are unable to achieve your Life Aim due to unforeseen circumstances. We determine set backs as significant situations beyond our control which were not previously considered and may result in a possible redirection of the Life Aim. Human nature in some circumstances may see a setback as failure, resulting in the individual giving up the search and effort for the Life Aim. Unfortunately, repeated setbacks could result in the individual feeling that the pursuit of Life Aims or even the pursuit of happiness is not worthwhile. With our positive, motivated outlook we will never fall into this trap! Here we overview the setback and we detail a plan to invigorate our drive and if required redefine our Life Aim.
Go back to ‘Review your Life Aim’ Page 8 to implement applicable steps and actions SUCCESS All actions completed, the Life Aim has been achieved! This is now the important step of reinforcing the achievement of the Life Aim. Review the ‘Letter from the Future’ and write a new letter to yourself which describes how you actually achieved the Life Aim. Detail the steps you have taken, any problems experienced, your feelings of happiness or disappointment along the way and your current feeling now that the Life Aim has been achieved. I also ask that you detail what lifestyle change if applicable you will make to maintain the Life Aim. It is important that you do not fall into old territory and allow the achievement of the Life Aim to dissipate. Detail in the letter how you plan to reinforce the Life Aim lifestyle changes. A SUCCESS LETTER WITH DETAIL OF HOW THE LIFE AIM WILL BE MAINTAINED
A REVIEW Well done! Having reached this step you will have worked hard to meet many emotions, some new and others more familiar. We trust the journey has been both fulfilling and educational. The achievement of your Life Aim is a major milestone. If you have not yet taken the time to celebrate this achievement set a date and action now and do it.
It is important that we treat milestones with the respect they deserve. This allows us to reinforce our commitment to self. We will also naturally feel emotions of happiness which generally accompany celebrations. This locks into our accessible memory our significant step and promotes forward action planning into the future. After having completed your actions and achieved your Life Aim, you can utilize the additional two sets of pro forma worksheets we have included at the rear of this manual to introduce the 2nd and 3rd Life Aims detailed on page 7. At A Life Coaching we encourage you to email this information to your family and friends. Help them to be successful and achieve goals. Throughout your journey you may have learnt new things about your self or some information you previously where unfamiliar with but consider very important. Detail these new findings here now so that you can access them in the future if required.
