Your personal values also help to determine what kind of people you keep around, what purpose you seek, and how you treat others. To create a healthy personal value system, you must evaluate the main areas of life: environment, career, fun, romance, personal growth, money, health, friends and family. Rate each area in terms of how important it is to your life and then rate each area again in terms of how fulfilled you feel in it right now. Compare these charts to decide on a healthy personal value system moving forward, one that will reflect your priorities and assist you in living a meaningful life. It’s almost time to go home. Only two more weeks until vacation. I can make it to the weekend. I’ll get by okay. I’ll make it through. Ever felt like this? I know you have; we all have. Everything piles up. Work, school, doctor visits, chores, bills. And too often, we let this mess clutter our minds and completely rule our lives—which is a big problem. Fortunately, there’s an effective solution to this problem: putting a healthy personal value system in place. A personal value system is made up of principles that guide your behavior and ultimately the direction of your life. It doesn’t just provide structure, but a purpose. Kailee Place, a licensed professional counselor, delves deeper into the functionality of personal value systems: “Having a personal value system is incredibly important for our lives as these values set the tone for decisions we make, the people we have in our lives, what purpose we decide to partake in, and how we treat people, to name a few. Without a core set of values to live from, there can be a lot of confusion and ambiguity. Our values set boundaries for us. For example, your values surrounding family helps guide whether you stay in your hometown or move away, whether you’ll want a lifelong companion, if you’ll want kids or not, and if so, how many, or how much time you spend at work versus at home. Values may be flexible and take time to develop or further narrow as we experience life, but building a general outline of what matters to you to your core grants you the ability to live a life you feel confident about. You make choices that sit comfortably with you versus feeling confused, guilty, or conflicted. A value system gives you a set of guidelines to follow in your daily life. And as much as we don’t like to admit it, people truly do like having rules to follow. These are just rules you decide for yourself in order to lead a life you’re happy about.”

Read More »Having a healthy value system creates a system of boundaries that guides the individual as they navigate everyday life. For example, an individual that places great importance upon family time will adjust their schedules to ensure that they spend significant time and energy into sustaining those relationships versus pursuing financial gain or entertainment. This, in turn, promotes positive emotions in thinking about their family and reinforces their value of family. Healthy values are ones that promote positivity, balance, healthiness, and happiness within the individual’s life as well as those around them. Since we as individuals are not islands, what we do, what we say, has impacts upon those around us. The more we live true to our personal values, the greater the impact we have on our moods, decision-making, and surroundings.” If you need a little assistance in identifying your personal value system, consider working with a life coach. These professionals can help you understand what matters most to you and help you identify it neatly.
