YOUR CORE VALUES ARE WHAT’S MOST IMPORTANT TO YOU IN LIFE.
Knowing your values helps you understand what drives and motivates you, what you enjoy, what inspires you, and what you would like more of. By building a life and lifestyle around your values, you'll create a life that's more satisfying and meaningful.
And by knowing your values, you can quickly communicate the things we value most and would like to (hopefully!) share with a partner one day. This is really helpful on a date, as it’ll give the other person a glimpse into who you are at your core, what you value most, and the type of life you want to build with someone.
Use the Sample Values list below to determine your Core Values!
*A Few Notes:
Core Values can deepen or change over time as your life changes, or as you get to know yourself better - and that’s okay!
Values can also be situational - what’s true for you at work may not be true at home!
Values are very personal, so if there’s different words that better reflect your values (and aren’t listed below), feel free to use your own unique value words instead!
