-
-
proportionate living

the art and science of leading a self-enquiry centered multifaceted life – to achieve well-rounded personal growth

what is crilet?
framework – for self-enquiry centered living
developed through varied external influences and deep internal reflections, crilet’s proportionate living framework combines
- the art of thinking, acting and reflecting differently
- and the science of following a disciplined and structured way of living
- to design a life filled with purpose, contentment, and peace
this orchestration of art and science –
- is not a genetic trait
- but to be developed and honed over time
- through attention, discipline and practice
it is important to remember… in this journey –
- we are seeking not so much a balanced life, rather a proportionate one
- where the focus is on relationships between the parts (facets)
- that make up the whole (life) filled with purpose, contentment, and peace!
