Have you ever wondered if your goals truly reflect what’s most important to you? In this episode, clinical psychologist Patch Callahan joins me to break down the difference between values and goals and why living by your values is the key to a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
We explore how to uncover your core values, navigate challenges in defining them, and integrate them into your everyday decisions. Whether you’re reevaluating your priorities for the new year or seeking deeper alignment in life, this episode offers practical insights to help you connect with what truly matters.
Episode Summary
Patch Callahan shares the transformative power of values, particularly in the context of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). We discuss how values differ from goals, why they matter, and actionable steps to define and live by them. Tune in to discover how aligning your life with your values can lead to greater purpose and authenticity.
Key Takeaways
• Values vs. Goals: Values guide your actions and choices, providing meaning, while goals are specific targets or achievements.
• Why Values Matter: Living according to your values fosters authenticity and a sense of purpose.
Defining Your Values:
• Reflect on key life domains: family, relationships, work, health, and leisure.
• Identify what’s deeply important to you within each domain.
• Narrow your focus to 5–6 core values that resonate most.
• Challenges in Identifying Values: Overcoming confusion or uncertainty requires reflection, experimentation, and sometimes professional support.
• Practical Tips for Value-Based Living:
• Use discomfort as a guide—it often points to what matters most.
• Prioritise decisions that align with your core principles.
• Build psychological flexibility to stay committed to your values even when faced with challenges.
