Values Checklist

Before you begin

This exercise helps you find the values that matter most to you right now. There are no right or wrong answers — go with your first instinct rather than the answer that sounds best.

1. 1Read each value and the sentence beneath it. The sentence describes how that value shows up in your life.
2. 2Rate every one of the 58 values as “Very important”, “Important” or “Not important”.
3. 3Be honest with yourself rather than aspirational. It is normal for several values to feel similar — choose the one that fits you best.
4. 4When every value is rated, choose exactly five you marked “Very important”, then rank them from 1st to 5th — 1st being the value you would least like to give up.
5. 5Check the five values you have chosen, complete the exercise, and download a copy as a PDF to keep or to bring to a session.
