Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

  • Working on my values feels like an endless aspiration with no scoreboard
  • I pour everything into one part of my life
  • I’ve identified the area I want to change and now I’m just sitting on a vague intention like "be more present with my kids"
  • I’m torn between two things I care about
  • I keep telling myself I’m basically living in line with what I care about, but if I’m brutally honest about my actual behavior the last couple of weeks, I suspect I’m way further from the center than I let myself admit

Practices that may help

  1. Values Bullseye, Made Practical
    The values bullseye, developed by Tobias Lundgren within the ACT framework, is a visual exercise in which you rate how close your current behavior is to the bullseye in four life domains — work, relationships, personal growth, and leisure. It converts abstract values into a concrete gap-analysis, making it easier to choose one committed action that moves you toward the center. The exercise is part of the established ACT toolkit; direct evidence for the instrument is limited but the underlying ACT framework has substantial support.
  2. Review the bullseye weekly to track real movement
    Re-mark each domain every week and compare — small outward or inward shifts are your feedback loop.

  3. Map your values across the four life domains
    Write one core value statement for each domain — work, relationships, personal growth, leisure — before touching the bullseye.

  4. Turn the chosen domain into a committed action
    Convert the domain insight into a concrete, timed, values-linked behavior — not a vague intention.

  5. Use the bullseye to resolve competing values
    When two values pull in different directions, the bullseye shows you which domain is most neglected and most in need of attention.

  6. Rate your current position in each domain
    Mark on each domain’s bullseye how closely your recent behavior has matched the value — honestly.

  7. Align around collective results, not individual status
    Teams fail when members prioritize their own visibility or department’s success over the shared goal.

  8. Choose one domain to move toward the bullseye this week
    Pick the domain where a small move would matter most — not the most important one in the abstract.

  9. Cover and move (teamwork over silos)
    Every team and department exists to support the others toward the same mission, not to win locally.
    Extreme Ownership, Made Practical
  10. Build a team whose combined strengths cover all four domains
    Hire and assemble deliberately for domain coverage, not for people who think like you.
