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 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
  • 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

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

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

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Map your Johari Window with a trusted person
    Identify what is open, hidden, and blind in a specific relationship or role.

  9. Develop second-tier, systems-level thinking
    Practice holding multiple value systems as simultaneously valid rather than competing for dominance.

  10. Values Card Sort
    A values card sort is a structured exercise — originally developed in motivational interviewing — that forces you to rank competing values by choosing between them rather than claiming you hold all of them equally. The comparison process surfaces implicit priorities that self-report alone misses. Evidence for values-clarification as a lever for behavior change is observational to clinical; the specific card-sort format has good face validity but limited direct trial data.
