Values Clarification

1) Choose your top 10 to15 values from the list below (if there is a value not indicated please fell free to add it) 2) Prioritize your list by identifying the top 5.
Questions to ask yourself to help you hone in on your top 5 values: *Which of these values is truly the most important to me in life? *If I could only satisfy one of these values which one would it be? The answer to this question is your number one value. Then move down the list and ask which remaining value is the next most important to you, and so on until youve sorted the whole list in priority order. For some, determining the highest priority values comes easy for others figuring out which ones are really important is a struggle. Sometimes what I suggest is inventing a scenario for each value, and then compare those scenarios. For example, if youre trying to decide which is more important to you, health or learning, then ask yourself, Which would I rather do- exercise or read a book? This example assumes that reading a book would satisfy your value of learning and that exercising would satisfy your value health, each roughly to the same degree.
