Stephen Covey identified 4 key areas of life as physical, spiritual, mental, and social/emotional. I talked about applying the fitness motif to them here.
But I’ve recently been exploring the concept that we human beings live in language: as water is to the fish, as air is to the birds, language is to humans.
“We live in language; we do what we do in language. We’re linguistic beings.” – Chalmers Brothers in Language and the Pursuit of Happiness
So now, I have insight into my 5 band puzzle ring.
It’s in the interweaving of the physical, spiritual, mental, and social/emotional areas of life as well as the language that they live in and in that I can find empowerment. To say it the other way around, language is how I create results in the physical, spiritual, mental, and social/emotional areas of my life.
