WELL-BEING (UWB)
Understanding the interlinked elements of well-being so you can live up to your best life
WELL-BEING IS IN YOUR GRASP BUT DO YOU KNOW HOW TO CONTROL IT?
I define well-being as one’s overall state of health. Over the last few years, I’ve gone on my own ‘happiness’ journey. From that, I’ve developed a calculated methodology to optimize my well-being. By understanding and controlling for the variables (X’s) then we can optimize our well-being (Y). These x-variables include the mental, emotional, spiritual, physical, and financial. Let’s figure this out together and show everyone the equation of well-being.
MENTAL
These are the mental components of well-being. In my methodology, mental is the intellectual layer that reacts and controls thinking so that our emotions, physical, and spirituality can also change. In some ways, this is habit-forming, in other ways its just developing understanding and perspective.
SPIRITUAL
Spirituality is the soul, the root of a person’s hope, faith and determination. Today, spiritual leaders like the Daila Lama and Pope are forming bonds to create more commonalities than contentions. Those who neglect it will never really get to his/her ultimate well-being. There are plenty of ways to develop your spiritual state. Let’s learn about it.
EMOTIONAL
Joy, Anger, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, and Distrust are types of emotions. Often, we have our own rackets or emotional cycles that we can’t control. They happen before our thoughts even process them. How do we change this? How do we recognize and control these triggers? In a world that tries to trigger our emotions day-to-day, it has never been more important to retain emotional equanimity.
CAREER
Money matters. But how much? Career matters. How much should it? These are two variables I’ve wrestled with my entire life. There is a lot of research now that helps to control one’s mindset around this. I’ve gotten to know people from all walks of life from refugees to mega-millionaires. I can help you frame your mind around your desire for money and creating a career that optimizes your well-being.
PHYSICAL
Often defined as wellness, physical health is our physical state. Moreover, it is also our understanding of how our physical state interacts with the other variables. Accepting our and other’s physical shape is equally as important. What we eat, how often we work out, and how we adapt as we grow older are all important things to learn.
SOCIAL
Do you know how the people around you influence you and affect your well-being? Have you ever measured this? The number of text messages, app messages, phone calls, in-person meetings all change your fundamental self. In this section, we learn how to balance, quantify, and reshape our social connections.

Whenever there is turmoil or a big change, you need to recenter yourself. UWB is the method for learning to re-center your inner self. Things may look fine, but you could be driving yourself into a rut. Even if you already meditate, exercise every day, have friends, and a great job, you may not know how to balance these the right way. UWB gives a support structure to talk to others outside of your circle to get a fresh perspective. UWB also provides a structure that is easy to follow and doesn’t take a great deal of time.
