STEP 1: PERFECT THE PRESENT                                      21


              6–10 pts.  Good work! Your home is a comfortable, relaxing place to
                        recharge. The more points you get, the more energy you
                        will get just by being in your home. Now is the time to
                        perfect one room at a time until you love every single one
                        of them.


              SELF-CARE AND HEALTH
              0–5 pts.  You simply aren’t investing enough in your self-care and
                        health. You have only one body to last a lifetime, so make
                        health a number one priority. Without our health, we can-
                        not enjoy our relationships, our work, or our lives. If you
                        can’t get motivated to start, hire a personal trainer to create
                        a program for you at the gym. Or work with a nutritionist
                        for the ideal food plan and you’ll be on the way.
              6–10 pts.  You might have already noticed that the better you take
                        care of yourself, the better others will take care of you too!
                        Now is the time to take your self-care up to the next level.
                        Add in that extra treatment or massage.

              CAREER AND OPPORTUNITY
              0–5 pts.  There is no reason why you should dread going to work
                        each day. Most people can find work that is personally
                        fulfilling and financially rewarding. It is worth doing a bit
                        of navel-gazing and discovering what your natural abilities
                        are and what career options are best suited to your natural
                        style and personality. You’ve certainly picked up the right
                        book! You’ll find more information and helpful computer-
                        ized assessment programs in the Resources section at the
                        back or on Lifecoach.com.
              6–10 pts.  You are on the path to a rewarding career. Congratulations!
                        Continue to invest in your ongoing development and
                        growth so that you don’t become obsolete, which can hap-
                        pen quickly in today’s rapidly changing world. Leverage
                        your strengths, and give up on getting good at your weak-
                        nesses—delegate them responsibly instead. You will gain
