4 essential, complementary dimensions

. Laurence Boldt (2001) suggests another way to look at this is to identify the 4 essential, complementary dimensions to your experience:

- practical you (part of you that wants to manage life, including physical health, energy necessary for achieving success, etc. Also,

"...concerned with establishing a lifestyle that reflects the values that are most important to you..."

Martyn Newman, 2007

- potential you (part of you that seeks to become your best, including self-development and creative expression)

- productive you (part of you that wants to create a meaningful life's work that is rewarding and challenging)

- personal you (part of you that wants to relate to others in your family and community in a rich and rewarding way)

NB Each element is critical but none is sufficient on its own, and each has significant influences on the others
