In a recent publication by the University of Technology-Sydney,
Paula Drayton provided some much needed structure on what it
means for a person to live in a sustainable way. Use these eight
elements for personal reflection.

* Wellbeing: your sense of physical and emotional health, the quality
of your relationships and your perceived quality of life.

* Engagement: the level of involvement you have with your life
directionand its alignment with how you pursue your goals and dreams.

* Ecology: the relatioship between you and your physical and social
environments.

* Presence: your ability to be 'in the now' and to make decisions
based on your sense of clarity, open-heartedness and open-mindedness.

* Intention: a course of action you choose to follow and the aims
that guide you to such action.

* Connection: the relationships and associations that exist within
your personal identity, with others and with the world around you.

* Abundance: your level of prosperity in terms of supply of
life's necessities and wants available to you.

* Career: your chosen pursuit, the progression or course of
your working life.
