BestSelf Co. & The One Thing - Core Values Deck

Used this deck with my coworkers and it was so insightful. Understanding the team's core values really helped us grow closer as team. We work remotely so having another tool to understand each other better is so helpful. I am attaching my core values. This is something I want to try with my family and friends.

I sat down today to look through the deck properly. At first glance, I thought it would be easy, but it really does make you think. Do I value joy, fun or playfulness (as an example)? None turned up in my final 3, but it was interesting to go through all of them to see what stuck and what didn't. I think having the cards visible on my desk will be helpful, just another way to remind myself to stay true to who I am, and appreciate that I am different than others (and we all have a different set of core values). Thanks for the inspiration!

I sat down the other day with a glass of wine and flipped through the deck. What I thought was going to be a quick and easy task, actually turned into some much-needed reflection time. I started out by creating a pile of values that stood out to me, then created mini piles, grouping similar values together, another glass later, I chose the three that really called out to me. I call these my ABCs, Authenticity, Belonging, and Curiosity. As I was choosing my values, it was challenging because there were things coming up that are important to me, but I don't live them on a day to day basis. There was a disconnect. When I really got into it, I saw that were some internal conflicts I've created in my life because I wasn't really living my values; which lead me to think about what needed to change so I could be happier and more fulfilled. They were small tweaks, but they felt needed. Granted, I felt pretty happy and fulfilled before this exercise, but when I really looked at things, this stirred up a few things that I've probably been ignoring. It might have been the wine, but I a lot out of this exercise and have started thinking more about my values when decision making, especially when it comes to how I spend my time and how I show up. I've even shared the deck with friends and had some pretty amazing conversations about our differences, again something that probably wouldn't have happened without this deck.

I loved this product, not only for myself but also to use with clients to support them on their journey to being more values driven. It was tough coming up with just three in the end, but I feel so good to have more clarity around my decisions and ensure I'm truly living by what I believe in. It was challenging at times, because there were values that I believe in such as 'fun' but I'm not necessariliy living that in my day to day life, and it's certainly not something I consider when making a decision. I was a bit of a rebel and chose three extra values which I would like to work on. I feel that this could perhaps support me in developing more in these areas, even if right now I'm not fully living them.

Spent Saturday night with the family and we took turns going thru the deck. And sharing the results with family and discussing what we see in front of us. Definitely a deck that prompted us to dig deep.

have read some info and written some goals and am tracking them. i have lots to listen to. I keep getting more everyday. I am overwhelmed so I haven't had a great start yet. I have not given up.

The number of values stated so clearly made me think very hard on which value truly resonates with me. It's a fun activity even for family, and I will definitely use it in my next training session!

Thank you for putting this tool together! My fiance and I used it to understand our core values both individually and as a couple, can't wait to use it at work with my team.

There are no questions to prompt thinking. Just words. I am a happy user of other best self products. This one seems to not have cut it.

I really enjoyed sifting through the values and the exercise to come up with my three core values. I have them sitting on my desk to look at every day. My only wish was that once these values were identified that there were further exercises to use them, whether that's journaling prompts or whatever.
