Job Review

I have spent the day writing annual performance reviews for my sales team at work. The whole process got me thinking. What if I were to give myself an annual review? Not on the job I do at work but more on the work I do in life. So below is a list of a few components that I believe are key competencies of me as a person. Hope you enjoy my review:

All scores are based on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.


Wife - I think I am a pretty good wife to Chris. I love him more than I love anything in this world. Sometimes I wonder if he is aware of how much I love him. I am able to take care of him and he knows I am his biggest fan. My biggest area of opportunity on this category comes from an intimacy perspective. I blame most of that on our fertility issues. The only way we know how to have sex is if a doctor tells us what day and time to do it and how long it should last. This is something I am confident we can work through.So my wife score is a 4.5.

Family - I am a pretty good kid. It helps that I was blessed with a Mother who ROCKS!. I could do a better job at communicating with my Sister Christy and my Brother. I am the Aunt that I always wished I had. Fun to hang out with out and full of hugs and love. I could do a better job in building a relationship with Chris's sister and her children. It is just difficult because they live so far away and we don't see them much. I could also work on building a relationship with Chris's Dad and Stepmother. They are the only family he has left and we really need to work harder to make them part of our life. So I give myself a score of 4 on a family scale.

Friend - I am easy to get to know at first but have a hard time letting people be really close to me. I suck at communicating with people on a regular basis. That is one reason why I started this blog. I either get busy or feel like I don't want to interrupt other people's lives. I have a few close girlfriends who really know me. They also know that when times are tough I will be there for them. I try not to judge people. I am bad about keeping up with friends and wish I was better. I give myself a score of 3.75.

Christian - This is the area of my life I need to develop the most. Thankfully I have a few friends who I look to for mentor ship in this area. They know who they are. Their love and devotion to the Lord is an inspiration to me every day. I hope to one day have a relationship like theirs. I get a 2 in this category.

Work - I feel like I do a great job at work. I am a devoted employee who cares about her job and the success of her team. Marriott gets all I have to give when it comes to work. I deserve at least a 5 in this category.

Health - I could really use more help in this area. I am trying to be better about working out and eating better but it is really hard. Once again I am blessed to have friends who inspire me to take care of myself physically. I believe that health is a combination of both physical and mental health. What I lack in physical strength I make up for in mental strength. I am in a better place mentally then I have been in a long time. So in this category I give myself a score of 3.5.

So there it is my review of me.... TRACY.

I encourage you to take a moment to stop and evaluate where you are at as a person. Have your identified the area of your life that are most important to you? Are you committed to improving them?

Gee I sound like a motivational speaker....
