What is a life audit? A life audit is a fairly straightforward concept, and yet many of us get hung up on it simply because the thought alone can seem quite daunting.
Simply put, a life audit is when you take a long, detailed, and honest look at various areas in your life to assess which are and aren’t helping you live to your highest potential.
A life audit involves becoming aware of how you want your life to align with your MISSION, and assessing your current situation to see how it alters from this.
This can involve some honest soul-searching, digging deep, and often making some difficult decisions, so I will warn you that it’s not for the faint-hearted!
