What Do You Value?
As quickly as you can, list 20 things in life which you really, really love to
do. There are no right or wrong answers about what you should like.
Using the suggested code below, the next step is to code the 20 items listed
above.
1. Place the number 1 by any item which costs more than $5 each time you do it.
2. Put a 2 by any item which involves some RISK. The risk might be physical,
intellectual, or emotional. (Which things in your own life, that you love to do,
require some risk?)
3. Using a 3, record any of the items on your list you think your FATHER and
MOTHER might have had on their list if they had been asked to make such a list
at your age.
4. Place either a 4 or a 5 next to each item; the 4 is for items you prefer
doing with PEOPLE, the 5 for items you prefer doing ALONE.
5. Place a number 6 by any item that would not have been on your list 5 years
ago.
6. Place a number 7 by any item you think will not be on your list 5 years from
now.
7. Finally, go down through your list and indicate the date when you last did
each item. Use an 8 for things
you have done today, a 9 for those done within the last month, and a 10 for
things you haven't done in more than a month.
