Taking an Inventory of Unlived Life: An Exercise Take a few moments to consider the following questions: How would you title your life story? What have been the critical crossroads or turning points in your life? When and where have you experienced major losses and disappointments? What were some of the missed opportunities or paths not taken? What has been the nature of your friendships? Are you a good friend? Do you keep a balance of looking after yourself and others? Which talents and abilities have you not applied? In the Appendix at the end of this book you will find an Unlived Life Inventory4 that is designed to help identify where you are in your life at this moment and what potentials are relatively unlived in you. It does not compare you with other people or offer a prescription for how you should be. The answers to the statements give a snapshot of your experience across four different dimensions: outer, inner, deeper, and greater. Take a few moments to fill out this inventory, score the results, and then reflect upon your life experience.
Living Your Unlived Life
Robert A. Johnson, Jerry Ruhl
he would purposefully connect to any lingering anxiety from the prior procedure, then release it on the exhale. In addition to this upgraded ability to let go of stress, you may also notice a subtle improvement in mood—an increased sense of connection to and engagement with colleagues, family, friends, and teammates; more comfort with emotional vulnerability; and an overall enhanced sense of calm. You may find it initially feels a bit strange to access an emotion and then let go of it so quickly. But with time and practice, this process will become easier and easier until it becomes second nature. Remember that persistent practice is the only way to build this skill. You must actually train the heart muscle to let go, just as you would train the muscles in your arm to perform a tennis serve. Through regular practice and repetition, your heart will learn to let go with greater potency and speed. It will feel softer, more open, and free.
