Do you know your core values?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I recently began working with a client who has been in business a good few years. However she was completely stuck. Nothing seemed to be working. She was tired, frustrated & unable to attract new clients⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I took her through a values elicitation – a great NLP exercise I walk all my new clients through⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And as so often happens, she had no idea what her core values were⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As introverts we absorb a lot of information, ideas & energy from others (like, a lot lot) & identifying our values can really help us know which of the things we’re thinking are actually OUR thoughts!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Values are EVERYTHING when it comes to:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Running your business⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Work/life balance⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Feeling aligned⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even what marketing strategy you choose!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So not knowing them can really put you on the backfoot!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After the short exercise my client was amazed – she said it was so obvious where she was acting against her values, no wonder she felt frustrated⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This new knowledge gave her the power to make decisions from a new found place of alignment (“You want me to what? Ok let me just check with my values… sorry, it’s a no!”)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tell me, do you know your top 3 core values?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
