Some guidance notes...

  • Breaking life into categories of work, home and play is pretty broad.
    • Work generally relates to paid employment and anything to do with work
    • Home can relate to the people you live with and your interaction with them, plus eating, sleeping, house maintenance, etc
    • Play covers virtually any discretionary activity or interest, usually enjoyable. It can be physical, intellectual, social, manual, community involvement, church, sport, whatever.
  • You can decide for yourself what each word or phrase means. 
  • A tick indicates you feel reasonably happy with how the word/phrase relates to your life through (respectively) your work, home and play.
  • At the end, check through 
    • the ticked boxes and think how you might want to build on your strengths 
    • the un-ticked boxes. Perhaps a tick was inappropriate...or perhaps you felt a reluctance to tick it for a reason known only to you
