Life Vision Grid

GOAL SETTING TOOLS

Define what you want across eight life dimensions
to surface where your vision is clear and where it is undeveloped.

Where This Tool Helps

Eight domains, equal weight. This is the core premise of the Life Vision Grid - no dimension is treated as more important than the others. In practice, most people arrive with two or three columns they can articulate clearly and four or five they have not thought about recently.

The undeveloped quadrants are the useful ones. A blank Environmental cell does not mean that dimension does not matter - it often means it has been operating on autopilot. The same goes for Occupational (what work means beyond income), Social (who you spend time with and why), and Spiritual (what gives your life coherence).

Filling the familiar cells first creates momentum. The less familiar ones become easier once the frame is established.

The steps below are designed to move through all eight without allowing the strong areas to crowd out the weak ones.

How to Use This Worksheet

  1. Start with the domain you know best. Fill that cell in detail - it sets a quality standard for the rest.
  2. Move to the domain you know least. Write something, even if it is tentative. A partial answer is more useful than a blank.
  3. Work through all eight cells before going back to revise. First pass is for generating; second pass is for refining.
  4. Look across the grid when all eight are filled. Notice which cells have the most energy (detail, certainty, excitement) and which have the least. That asymmetry is information.
  5. Identify one underdeveloped domain that, if addressed, would strengthen two or three other areas. That is usually where the highest-leverage work is.

To Consider

Which cell has the fewest words? What does it cost you - in energy, in satisfaction, in options - to leave that domain on autopilot?
