How to Find Your Core Values | 3 Easy Steps

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Correction @ 4:12.....Litmus test question is: Do you envision, 25 years from now, this core value changing?

[@clintjohnson5317]

Where do we get these litmus test questions regarding this topic? Great video by the way..

[@EbonyDTaylor]

Oh wow, now this is a good question

[@brendancaden478]

I realize I am kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good place to watch new series online ?

[@yellowgirl273]

But I feel like your values can change, for example in college my priority wasn’t family…but now that I’ve been blessed with children and and husband, that is now absolutely one of my core values…no?

[@Kramlets]

@@yellowgirl273 Values can change, and that sounds like something you've started to value, though it's not a *core value*.

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZbin channel 11 months ago about self development. Now I have 2,132 subs and > 2k hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Congratulations on starting your KZbin channel. It takes time and perseverance but looks like you are well on your way! Wishing you all the best as you continue on this journey. Cheers!

[@nathananderson8720]

@@AdrianaGirdler Whoever you are, I don't know you personally but I can say that you're one of the non-judgmental and open-minded people who is not fixated on tangible or external factors in order to learn from someone like me. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper as a credential, doesn't mean that person is not entitled to share personal experiences with the hope & intention to inspire others. Keep up with whatever it is that you're doing to improve mankind or improving your life even to a slight degree each day. This is just one part of a bigger puzzle for creating my KZbin channel about holistic health. I literally could have died back when I was 14 years old due to major depression but here I am right now replying to you, a KZbinr, who's full of fulfillment and dedication to help others to be a better version of themselves. I ain't better than anyone else but my old self. That's all that really makes this KZbin thing more meaningful and enjoyable. Thanks so much for your support! I am hoping that you can join me with this endless personal development journey! :)

I have only just recognized that my life has been the way it was because I had no Core values. I sat with this video and became fully aware of what they are and how important it is to me to hold these true now. Doing the LITMUS TEST only reinforced in me THE IMPORTANCE of allowing these to shine as MY ESSENCE. I appreciate this video more than you could possibly know. Look out world I have just arrived. Thank you, Adriana.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

[@queengoblin]

I agree with all of the litmus questions except the one about stress. I have given up my core values in times of stress, because the stress was due to trauma. Especially for people with trauma, we give up our values in times of stress. It doesn't mean they aren't core values. It will always feel bad to give these up in times of stress. You know they are core values because it feels bad to give them up. You feel like you are going against your core, because you are. If they don't feel bad to give up, they aren't core values.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. When I created the stress question for the litmus test it was for everyday simple stressor, not trauma. Trauma stress is so much different from a psychological perspective and decisions made during traumatic experiences are not and should never be equated to simple stressors of life. There is deeper work to do with trauma and there should never be any judgement when working through this type of stress. Feeling safe and being able to heal is so critical. As the author of this litmus test, I give permission to anyone who is dealing with trauma to skip this question until you have healed your traumatic experience. ONLY use the stress question for general everyday stressors like missed deadlines, being late, feeling over extended...things that you can examine and choose to fix to keep your core value or change the value if you choose not to fix the stressors. I hope this explanation provided additional insight and when I update my workbook I will make sure to put a notation of this in it. Thank you.

[@RileyGrigg]

Adriana, I liked your points about core values and how to know what your personal core values are. As I was going through your video, one thing I thought I didn't agree with was when you said that if I answered yes to any of the questions, it wasn't a core value. I thought of the question if you have ever lost a value when stressed. My thought process was that we aren’t perfect and a value lost may still be a core value. The important thing is that we keep with it trying to develop that value. I then had a light come on, perhaps seeing it more from your perspective. Maybe the value you lost during stress isn’t necessarily a core value, but perhaps determination is in reality the underlying value. No we aren’t perfect, but perhaps if we go through your test, maybe there’s a value we are missing underlying the value we thought was at our core. Thank you for sharing. This video really helped me in identifying my values.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

@RileyGrigg I am so thrilled to hear that this video helped you identify your values and thank you for sharing your thought process with me. I really enjoyed reading how you worked through to find your values. Wishing you all the best. Cheers!

[@ivanverdian1]

Litmus Test of Core Values: - Would you sacrifice your core value with money? - Have you ever lost core value? - Do you envision in 25 years that core value still exists? - Would you stop these values if, at some point, they become competitive disadvantages?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thanks for watching, cheers!

[@stephanieteoh6454]

Can you maybe give an example of the last one? Don't really understand what she means by it.... thx!

[@paulcourtney6931]

Thanks 👍

[@arunchettoor]

Thanks. The last one means , if you found that any core value makes you less competitive in a field and still whether you holds the value.

[@805_wlc_chuarenjie5]

😊

[@shadoshahad1546]

1- choose 3-5 core values from a list. 2- know what this value means to you. 3- ask your self about it. If you are not following the values 24/7 you can start again.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thank you so much for watching, cheers!

[@Joseph2day]

I personally believe peoples core values should continuously evolve over their lives. Their is one thing that might count as a core value that has stayed constant throughout my life, and that is the refusal to believe that I can know what will be important to me in the distant future. It is the reason that I never got a tattoo. I knew in my 20's that I would not agree with the things I find most valuable to day when I was 70. I guess maybe my true core value is that my values will grow and change throughout my life as I learn more and more about the world and my place in this world.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

@Joseph2day thank you for sharing that and for watching, cheers.

[@michellecoleman9849]

In a perfect world, we would never sabotage our core values. In the real world, things like trauma, grief, and fear have a tendency to take over. Furthermore, if we have been controlled and abused by another, including religion and the workplace, we tend to not have access to our core beliefs and find our lives have been carefully crafted by someone and/or someone else. It is why so many of us live in great dissonance and search for videos on how to discover our core values and beliefs. We are not two dimensional creatures. I went to your list and found many descriptive words on characteristics. Among those were a few core words, such as fairness, bravery, and family. They fall into different core categories. For example, bravery is a core emotion that inspires action and defines the way we show up in life. Fairness would be more of a core belief, meaning everyone should be treated fairly, despite status, religion, political leanings, gender, etc. Fairness is demonstrated by several of the characteristics you listed, such as equality, accountability, ethical treatment, honesty, attentiveness,balance, etc. There is a massive difference between core values and beliefs and character qualities. Qualities won't always reflect our core values when under great duress. We'd like them to, but no one is perfect and we aren't the same in every given moment or day. This does not mean our core values are not real. It means we have violated them, just as many others have before. We learn to violate and hide our core values to survive. Though I do believe we can dig for those values by starting with characteristics and qualities that we like, such as the many provided on your list, it is important to understand the difference between a core value, core belief, and how those either show up or are covered up in our lives. If they are being covered up, as is the case for many, starting with generic qualities can help with the discovery process. This will often showcase how and when we are untrue to ourselves. I would like to add that core values and beliefs do evolve over time. As we gain life experience, what was once a core value in our earlier life may take on a different life later. For example, in my youth, I refused to respect authority unless it proved to be valuable and trustworthy. I believed most weren't. Giving people grace was not a priority, so proving one's right to authority was difficult. Sometimes impossible, depending on a particular position held. Today, I do not immediately dismiss those in positions of authority unless they make it a point to demonstrate unchecked power and privilege. In my youth, I believed most people in positions of authority were out to control and enslave me. Many were, and I was defenseless outside rebellion. Though I still hold this belief to a much smaller degree, I know there are many deserving people in positions of authority worthy of my support. One of my core values is fairness. Because of this, I do not believe people in positions of authority should be treated any better than anyone else. A core belief is that all authority and power should be questioned when necessary, which involves things like bravery, accountability and transparency. This keeps people and institutions in check and balanced. Sometimes a person may hold our life in their hands, literally. In order to survive, we might violate our core belief by holding our tongues. Do you see what I am getting at? Thank you for providing a starting place.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Michelle. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I can see that this is an important topic to you based on your in-depth reply. I appreciate your perspective and I am sure others who may read your comment will find it useful. Please note that what is suggested in the video can and ought to be accommodated to suit individual needs. Think of it as guidance and insight. The ultimate goal for everyone is to reflect on their answers and to revisit identified core values until they find the one/s that resonate with their heart center, soul and inner wisdom. For some people this can be immediate and for others it may be a longer journey. There is no ‘right’ answer only what is right for each individual. Once a person finds their true core value it will stay with them as they will cherish it, be aligned with it and use it to make life decision with it. That is the ultimate end goal. Cheers.

[@aprilblenk]

I have a question. With the question, “have you lost any core value in times of stress?”, what if it’s a core value you admire but it’s hasn’t been implemented in your life before? For instance, I like the idea of self-improvement/self-growth but in the past, I’ve been a lazy person and chose comfort over working on myself. Should I cross it off my list since it’s something I’ve failed at in the past when times became tough or should I still consider it if it’s something I really wanna implement in my life?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thanks so much for watching the video. Regarding your question....cross off core values that you ignore all the time and if you are honest with yourself only have due to pressure or expectation from others. Remember, core values are something you live 24/7, not when it’s just convenient. Now...the question I have for you is why do you chose comfort over self improvement? Is fear driving this response? The fact that you are asking the question is a good thing. You now have awareness of it. Decide now if self improvement is truly important to you. Will you at any point in time regret not connecting to yourself and being the best you can be? If you answer yes, put it back on your core value list and start living it. No more excuses. Otherwise take it off your list. Failing at a core value you do not resonate with will only set you up for failure. That is not the purpose of finding and living your core values. Hope this helped and all the best. Cheers. Ps: living core values, 24/7, in itself is self improvement.

[@noremac4807]

I think a core value that you admire could become a supporting value

Do you mind clarifying what you mean by it "becoming a competitive disadvantage"?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

hey @TessRolston - think of this as the opposite of a competitive advantage, so usually something negative. Cheers!

Really helpful and literally life changing. Thank you for your time.

Thank you, Cann. I am so happy that this video on finding your core values was so helpful to you. I have a 2 part course I put out when COVID started on developing your personal vision statement. It’s free and on my channel. Check it out if you have time:) thanks for watching, cheers

This is really helpful. I’m moving into my first PM role next month so I feel this will be extremely valuable

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Harvey, congratulations on your new role! I do have a 45 min webinar that I think will benefit you as well. In this free training I walk you through the five key items needed on all projects, it's what I call the FAB FIVE FUNDAMENTALS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT. The FAB FIVE are the 5 key items that you must do on every project - if you only do 5 things, these are them! It’s a great way to simplify projects, while still doing the essentials needed to ensure project success. Save your seat here: www.slayprojectmanagement.com/webinar Wishing you all the best. Cheers!

Love this video. Do you mind writing out the questions you mentioned to ask yourself.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Bianca! Thank you so much for watching and love that you liked this video. If you turn on the close caption while watching the video, you will be able to read those questions and then pause to write them down. Hope this tip is helpful. Let me know how you make out with that. Cheers!

@@AdrianaGirdler lol okay thank you.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Would love to know when you have decided on your core values 😊

[@narcisoanasui246]

1. Define Values 2. Understand values 3. Litmus test (would you sacrifice money for this value? Have you lost any values in times of stress? Do you envision that this value will hold true in 20+ years? Would you stop holding these values if they ever became threatened by competition?)

Hi Rob, here is the link to get the list of core values. Scroll down to the bottom to find the PDF download. Cheers! www.myvisualvision.com/personal-vision-statement

[@MissB98]

Hi, how did you create or come up with the litmus test? Is it your own creation or is it a tool commonly used, if so how? I have been googling about it without great success other than the reference to ‘test for acidity or alkalinity using litmus’. Thx.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

The litmus test is used to to measure a person, situation or idea. When you run your core values through a litmus test you are asking yourself, Does this idea bring me joy? Is this relationship in integrity? Does this situation create a sense of aliveness? If you answer yes then they have passes the litmus test and can be considered a core value. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching, cheers!

[@bombpg]

Hey! I loved this video. Thanks so much for putting it together. One question I had was, do you think it is good or reasonable to have any core values that are aspirational rather than purely descriptive? For example, there are some traits that I don't think I've always embodied in the past but that I would like to use as guideposts in the future. If you wouldn't call these core values, what would be a good way of thinking about them? Thanks!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Matt! You are very welcome and thanks so much for watching! To answer your question, your core values are ones that stay with you 24/7 and will never change as they are connected to your essence of who you are. Find your 2-3 values that resonate with you and then you can have as many supporting values as you would like. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching, cheers!

[@zoltan-gero]

Thanks for the great video! My questions are: 1. I can't get the list below 10, but it seems too many, is there any ideal number? 2. One day I feel ths is the top, nex day that priority, but cannot fix prio, is that normal? How to fix priority? 3. A few depends on the other or next values, is this case are they just one Ie Honesty and Accountability, what I think = what I say = what I do, hard to differentiate. Same with Brave and Confidence, confidence is a byproduct when I'm brave, direct cosequence. In these cases, are they 2 or just 1 value? I call 2 value metavalues, referring to other values like Freedom because without them, the rest don't make any sense. Any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Zoltan. Aim for 3 core values if you can. I have a two part series on how to find your vision and I think these will help to answer most of your questions. I will leave the link to the videos here for you. Thanks for watching and wishing you all the best and great success.
