One of the easiest ways to do a life audit is to just ask yourself ten questions for each area of your life and then give yourself a score to find out how to rate yourself.

Below I’ve outlined ten questions for the friends and family life area so you can easily assess where you’re currently at – simply give yourself a score out of ten for each question with one being awful and ten being excellent, with no room for improvement.

1. How vulnerable and authentic do you allow yourself to be around your friends and family? (Scoring: very vulnerable = 10, not vulnerable at all = 1)
2. How happy are you with how many close friends you have?
3. How happy are you with how often you text, call or see friends?
4. How happy are you with how often you text, call or see family?
5. How happy are you with the quality of your friendships?
6. How happy are you with the quality of your family relationships?
7. Do you actively listen to your friends and family?
8. Do you empathize with your friends and family?
9. Are you quick to apologize to your friends and family?
10. Are you quick to forgive your friends and family?

Now add up your total score. Below is the scoring key:

1-10       =             1 mark out of 10 (poor)

11-20     =             2 marks out of 10

21-30     =             3 marks out of 10

31-40     =             4 marks out of 10

41-50     =             5 marks out of 10

51-60     =             6 marks out of 10

61-70     =             7 marks out of 10

71-80     =             8 marks out of 10

81-90     =             9 marks out of 10

91-100   =             10 marks out of 10 (amazing)
