Example: F-ocus: Self-Active A-ttitude: What is my approach to this focus area what do I want it to be? I think of Stephen Covey's "be proactive" habit, which is the opposite of being in a victim mentality. I want to go from "everything happens to me" to "I proactively choose what happens in my life." S-tory: What is a story that illustrates the power of having this focus in my life? I was going through a difficult time in my life. My marriage was ending, and I wasn't allowed to see my children. I was pretty miserable for quite a long time a couple of years. Actually, I was seeing myself as a victim. I was thinking this was my story, and I was telling this story to everyone else. It defined me for a while, but I didnt want to feel miserable. And it was only when I had the realization that it was up to me, that I could be self-active and take control... it was only after I moved on that I had some magical things happen. I started doing great stuff and met an amazing woman who I ended up marrying... T-ool: What is a tool I can use to maintain this focus area? I can use The Sausage Machine, which means I will essentially ask myself, "What am I putting in? Am I casting myself as 'the victim'?"

2. Choose one central focus area that relates to the other 12 items yet also stands alone as a focus area for one week at a time. This will be your gateway focus. You will place it in the center of the wheel. In the first example on page 2, Awareness is the focus point. In the second example on page 3, Planning is the focus point. What is your central focus area?

3. Choose the other focus areas youd like to concentrate on for one week at a time within each domain. If youve chosen four major domain areas, chose three focus areas that correspond to each of the four major domains youve chosen. If youve chosen three domains, then write in four focus areas that correspond to each of the three. If youve chosen two major domains, then write in six focus areas that correspond to each of the two. Use the listing tool below to draft how you might like to organize your wheel.
