The Grati2ude™ Way
4 Part Personal Paradigm
1. Determine Your Life Purpose: We begin by identifying your life purpose, clarifying your desired personal and professional vision; defining your core values and mission, and then building an action plan.
2. Make a Plan + Commit: Next, we embark upon a build of your personal strategic plan, a big part of which will include a life and career SWOT analysis, and SMART goals.
3. Be Authentic: We filter all of this through a paradigm of your creation, with perspective that only you can provide: based on your thoughts, feelings, intuition, authenticity, and intentions.
4. Process with Gratitude: We frame every session with gratitude. Gratitude elevates and accelerates positive vibrations, which are fundamental to the manifestation of all of intentions.
8 Essential Roles and 6 Steps to Imrovement
Wheel of Life: Roles + Goals
This "Wheel of Life" is a visual tool used to identify 8 priority areas of our lives, where most of us seek satisfaction and fulfillment, or need improvement. For each of these of these areas, we apply the following:
1. Assessment: We start by assessing your current satisfaction in each area on a scale from 1 to 10. This identifies areas that need attention.
2. Visualization: The visual representation of these values are used to help us see imbalances and prioritize where to focus.
3. Goal Setting: I work with you to set specific, achievable goals in each area based on your assessments and aspirations.
4. Action Planning: We develop action plans and strategies to improve satisfaction in lower-scoring areas while maintaining strengths in higher-scoring areas.
5. Status: Periodically, we review the wheel to track progress, reassess satisfaction levels, and adjust goals as needed.
6. Integration of Gratitude: Throughout the process, we incorporate gratitude practices in all of these areas to enhance overall satisfaction.
This tool and exercise helps us gain a holistic view of our lives, identify priorities, and with the right plan, work towards a more balanced, purposeful, and fulfilling life.
