Discover a practical system for measuring how you live by ten core human relations.

This edition presents a clear scale of values and directions you can apply to daily life.

Originally framed as a guiding talk on what makes a life well-lived, the work uses questions and ranks to help you assess your own habits. It emphasizes how physical health, work, wealth, pleasure, knowledge, art, family, society, government, and faith interrelate to shape character and success. The book aims to illuminate strengths and gaps without vague promises, offering a concrete framework you can revisit over time.

Assess where your attitudes and actions align with creative, productive, or receptive living across ten fundamental relations.
Identify patterns that support or undermine personal growth, from thrift and responsibility to community and civic life.
Use a clear ranking system to gauge progress in areas like work, relationships, public duty, and belief.
Reflect on how your choices in money, leisure, learning, and leadership affect your broader life and others.

Ideal for readers seeking a thoughtful, action-oriented lens on personal development and values.
