youIQ – Putting the “c” in Change

youIQ Episode 1

My first youIQ podcast provides a brief introduction to who I am, along with several reasons personal development is important. Change, as a concept, is introduced. Big "C" Change vs. little "c" change, change as inevitable, and a brief overview of the reasons change can be difficult were all discussed.

For your benefit (and for some of you, enjoyment), I am providing the "Wheel of Life" form that I use with my coaching clients. This is a useful tool in viewing areas of strength and weakness, as well as balance among the areas of your life. We need to know where we are, if we are to evaluate what changes we would like to make!

For those with an inordinately large amount of time on your hands (or a particular curiosity), I am also including some questions that may help spur thought on how you personally view change.

Be well!

Chuck
