The busy person

Never enough time to do everything they would like to,. When asked about their work-life balance this individual replies– “what’s that?”

This person sets high standards wants to put their all in to everything they do and often end up losing out on time for themselves.

Often feeling tired, exhausted and lacking energy, this person seldom makes time to consider what it is that they want from life, continuing on the treadmill of their current busy “ no time to invest time in what they really want to do” life situation.

The dreamer

This individual has some fantastic ideas and visions as to what they would like to do in life, but that is all they remain – IDEAS.

No goals are established, nothing is written down or planned for, and nothing is done to move themselves closer to their ideas/vision.

This person often revisits the thoughts and talks animatedly about their goals – but nothing more.

The fearful dweller

This is the “what if” individual, the spinner of stories and possible outcomes about what might be, or what could happen. They are their own obstacle to making their dreams/goals happen. They live in a world that contains many imaginary negative thoughts usually about the possible consequences of taking action. This person blocks positive thoughts – these thoughts are deemed just too optimistic!

They avoid pain at all costs and don’t even consider any pleasure that might be derived from their actions if taken towards their goals.

The aimless wanderer

This person drifts from one thing to another, (nothing wrong with this, if they prefer this lifestyle). However, with no planning or thought given to what it is that they want from life, or what their goals/aspirations are that they want to achieve, suddenly the pursuit of a windy directionless road with many side roads having been taken results in this individual feeling frustrated and/or in a situation which is not giving them anything that is important to them in life.

The long-time contented

This individual has been happy with life for a while, they have achieved a fair amount of their life goals and are generally content with life. Although contentment finds them used to a certain way of living, familiar surroundings and day-to-day activities find this individual stuck in a rut or feeling a need for something more. Often a feeling of exasperation occurs as this individual considers what and how to do something different.

The combination

This individual is a hybrid of one or more of the above descriptions. We are all unique, hence the diversity which makes life interesting!

How does this relate to you?
