Weekly check-in
It’s essential to check in with ourselves and make sure we are moving our life forward in a positive direction. Daily, life can throw us off course, and the calm persona we achieved over the weekend is gone. A weekly self-check-in helps pinpoint a pattern that needs to be broken or a blockage in your life, causing more problems than you realized. Below are a few easy lists to help you find those joys in life or annoying obstacles.
- TOLERANCES: What are you putting up with at the moment?
- SHOULDS: What do you think you ‘SHOULD’ be doing right now, professionally & personally?
- FRUSTRATIONS: What things are FRUSTRATING you about yourself, your life, health, work, and others?
- DESIRES: What do you REALLY, REALLY WANT right now in your personal and professional life?
Personally Professional

Ask yourself, “Who am I?”
Now write down everything that makes you YOU below. Include both your ‘good’ and ‘bad’ qualities.
HINT: The qualities you like least are helpful in the next stage.

Remember, these tasks do not have to be time-consuming, just 30 minutes every seven days for one month. Do not look at the previous sheets. After that month, review all four worksheets to see if you find a pattern of your joys, frustrations, and tolerances: the good qualities and the not-so-good. The point is to discover something different about yourself, a joy you could explore further. Or, maybe it’s something that needs to be eliminated in your life.
A new self-discovery path is there for you if you are willing to explore deep inside yourself. Have fun with it; learning more about you can be extremely rewarding; we are all on this journey together!
