I don't know who came up with the Level 10 Life but I've seen it everywhere for a long time and when I saw Kara's from BohoBerry, I had to try it, but I knew I wanted to make a few changes. At this time I was getting ready to move into a new Bullet Journal, so I was also getting ready to re-visit some of my Artist of Life (by Lavendaire) spreads. Here is my twist on the two. This spread took two 2-page spreads. I used one for my chart and quick lists for my brainstorm-evaluation of each life area.

I used a circular chart to visually display the areas and my scoring. I didn't do any kind of scientific scoring here, I did what I felt based on my little +/- lists under each area and how much I weighted each item on those lists. When faced with a color coding task...I cannot help myself but use the rainbow. It never even occurred to me to create a one or two color scheme until I saw versions like that on Pinterest.

The second spread was dedicated to a more specific goals in each area. I always use the SMART method when creating and evaluating goals—Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-bound. I required myself to come up with at least three actionable goals under each life area. Some were major, some were sort of "easy wins", but I believe it's important to build or grow into major goals, sometimes that means breaking big goals into little goals.

I thoroughly enjoyed this exercise. I love having a visual to understand something, and to set specific goals, it was really helpful for me to separate them out in the same way I did with the Artist of Life workbook so that I could use all that work I put into the original goal spreads I made in my old bujo. I am a little behind in my mid-year review and update because mid-year I did a lot of traveling and then all of a sudden it's my birthday and I'm turning 30-years old! I will surely update my goals using this method though because I love the categorization and the ease with which I can utilize color and format.
