What’s Important?

Tool Overview

We may not always know what we want as a goal. It can be helpful to identify what our values are, or the things that are most important t

This tool encourages reflection on what is important to us.

Once we know what’s important to us, we can set some goals that work for us. Then, when we’re faced with tough choices, we can ask ourselves which choice supports our values, and what’s important to us.

How To Use This Tool

Make a list of the things that are most important to you (a personal list of values).

As we grow and change, our values will change too. Some of the things that were really important to us 3 months ago may not be as important now. But, some things like our family or having a job may stay high on our list. It’s a good idea to revisit this tool every few months to reflect on how we’ve grown and changed.
