Are you struggling to define what quality of life means for you?
If you don’t know how to measure your quality of life, you’ll find it challenging to make your life what you want it to be.
Measuring your quality of life takes just three questions.
Then, you can start increasing your quality of life.
Question 1: Are you fulfilling your purpose?
You are here to do something.
You may know precisely what that something is.
You may not have any idea what it is at all.
Most likely, you have at least an inkling.
You don’t need to know your purpose to gauge whether you are fulfilling it.
Use the Seven Simple Steps to ask your heart, body, mind, and spirit.
They know.
Let their answers guide you.
Question 2: Are you living the life you want to live?
Your ideal life has a specific shape, flavor, sound.
It’s not what other people have told you it should be.
It’s not even what you think it should be.
All those shoulds are misleading.
Please don’t should on yourself.
Instead, use the Seven Simple Steps to ask your heart, body, mind, and spirit: “What is the life I want to live?”
They know.
Let their answers guide you.
Question 3: Are you experiencing joy and delight?
You have absolutely experienced joy and delight.
Whatever your current circumstances, your first experiences with this world included joy and delight.
The wonder of the sun sparkling across the landscape.
The sensation of the wind blowing across your face.
The fascination of your toes.
Joy and delight were all around you.
And, they still are.
Whatever your current circumstances, your heart, body, mind, and spirit can help you recognize and embrace them.
Let them help you.
Start anywhere you like
Each of these questions reinforces and accelerates the others.
The more you act to fulfill your purpose, the more you will live the life you want to live, and the more you will experience joy and delight.
The more you live the life you want to live, the more able you will be to fulfill your purpose, and the more you will experience joy and delight.
The more you experience joy and delight, the more energy you will bring to fulfilling your purpose, and the more ease you will feel in living the life you want to live.
Thus, it doesn’t matter where you start.
Just start anywhere!
