Take This Personal Life Assessment

You have only one life. How is yours going? Are you achieving all you want? Are you getting where you want to go fast enough? Is the quality of your life what you want it to be? How much satisfaction is your life bringing you? How are your relationships? Are you satisfied with your income and overall financial picture? What things are missing in your life? If you could make significant changes, how quickly would they bring you closer to reaching your full potential?

This personal assessment tool will quickly provide you with the big picture in your life. It will help you begin to identify your strong points, reveal your needed development areas and provide a focus for any coaching session. It will also serve as a launching point for understanding how the personal coaching process will unfold.
