Discovering the Essence of Your True Self.

In my professional coaching practice, I consistently emphasize the pivotal role of values with my clients. I stress that the path to personal growth and fulfilment lies in alignment with one’s values.

Your values are your inner compass.

 

Think of your values as your internal compass, guiding you through life’s complex terrain. Identifying and comprehending your values constitutes a profound and essential undertaking. These personal values are integral facets of your identity and aspirations. By fostering awareness of these fundamental principles, you gain a reliable framework to navigate any situation wisely.

How does it work?

After all, values are just abstract notions. The definition is the following – values are the moral principles or accepted standards that define an individual or a group.

Values are dynamic and hierarchical in nature, articulating what we hold dear and aspire to achieve. These values can encompass loyalty, truthfulness, stability, love, and countless others. Both values and beliefs collectively mould our self-perception and shape our worldview. They serve as filters, shaping our perceptions and constructing our individual maps of reality.

In our day-to-day lives, we often neglect to consciously contemplate our values unless we make a deliberate effort to do so. Consequently, delving into your values necessitates insight and a philosophical approach.

Values elicitation.

The process of eliciting and prioritizing your values is a time-consuming endeavour, yet it is a profoundly worthwhile one. It may be perplexing to choose between two values such as “loyalty” and “stability” when they both hold significance to you. I routinely advise my clients that both are indeed their values; we are simply establishing their hierarchy.

By the end of this exercise looking at those values, you just established in that particular order, you are uncovering Your Sacred Truth. 

For many individuals, this revelation can be surprising, offering newfound clarity regarding past actions, such as ending a relationship or leaving a job, actions that once seemed inexplicable.

Your values serve as the criteria behind the decisions you make, the architects of your emotions, and the driving force behind all your actions and behaviours.

In the pursuit of any goal, it is imperative to assess whether those objectives align with your values. When they do, you become more resolute, motivated, and poised for success.

If you’re curious about how this process works, consider investing just 15 minutes in the “VALUES” exercise to kickstart your journey.
