- Welcome to Summer of Self Ep 4: Work out your Core Values With Me! 🦋This will help you get to know yourself and understand yourself better by asking questions about what is important to you in different scenarios! This contributes to clearer decision-making, self love, and clarity on your values in relationships and work life! As you can see, it's not easy to choose... The exercises in this video are a combination of a workshop I did at uni, questions I found online and other videos which I will leave linked down below :)
What are some of your core values? 🌞
Journal Prompt Exercises:
1. Take a look at this list of values (you can use any on Google Images!): thehappinessplanner.com/pages...
2. Write down ~10-15 which resonate with you
3. Write down the most important experiences which have shaped your life
4. Reflect on what these experiences were a means to an end of. What feeling did you want to achieve?
5. Cross off values until you land at 5.
6. Litmus Test these values with the following Qs: would I give up one of these values for £1 million?
7. Have you ever lost these values in times of stress?
8. Will you likely still have the same values in 20-50 years?
9. If yes, these values are likely core to you!

Summer of self chapters are one of the highlights of my weekend ❤🌟🌻
To anyone who needs to hear this: it's not really possible to be able to recognise what your core values are if you spent years in survival mode. Give yourself credit for what you have done already and DO NOT FEEL GUILTY about others' progress 🌿✨
I needed this, thank you. Since the pandemic I've felt so out of tune with myself and my values, because I've just been surviving. I know I'm not living the way I want to be right now, but it's what I had to do to get through! But this exercise is a nice chance to try and reconnect with my pre-pandemic self.
So true, i spent my whole life in survivor mode and the pandemic woke me up and I realised i wasnt doing anything I love I just did what was expected of me. Now that I realised that i try to make time for my passion.
“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.”
Sometimes we need a reminder like this, if you are reading this have a good day💜
Fun idea: turn these into affirmations! Reminding yourself of the things you value most in yourself and your relationships feels so good :)
thank you so much for this idea! I just did it and it’s absolutely great!
*To all the dreamers out there, don't ever let the world's negativity disenchant you or your spirit. If you surround yourself with love and right people, ANYTHING is possible.* 🙏🖤
Thank you
1. Growth: lifelong learning and becoming a better person each and every day
2. Connection: maintaining positive relationships and meeting new people
3. Happiness: doing things that bring me enjoyment and not taking life too seriously
4. Health: building habits that keep my body and mind healthy,
5. Thoughtfulness/kindness: being a thoughtful and kind person no matter what happens in life (If someone has a better name for this value let me know!)
last one could be optimism
@@LeaReads Yeah! That captures what I'm trying to express pretty well :)
So similar to mine! Mine were family, passion/love, joy/happiness, continuous improvement/growth and mindfulness ☺️
If possible, could you make a video telling us about the financial aspect of attending Minerva? Like using different currencies, being able to afford living in these cities, day to day expenses etc. Love ya ❤️
yes i would love this! its my dream to study abroad. im in community college right now but would love to transfer, jade please!
Yess pls that would be super helpful!!
Yess please
The best part about getting older is how the strong need to search for your own identity subsides, and then you discover so much more outside yourself.
That’s very true. It’s a process we all go through and very natural and important for young adults finding their own way in the world - something I definitely struggled with in my 20s. Once you become at peace with who you are, losing the need to constantly define yourself, you are able to be so much more open to the world.
Sounds like something to look forward to. Constantly questioning myself and finding out new things about myself feels like it's necessary and helpful at the moment, but it's also soo draining and stressful.
How old are we talking about? Not to be intrusive and inquire about your age, I'm just curious as to when I'll be able to take the break of constantly being in my own little world. It's necessary but also intimidating to be always analysing oneself tbh
Just a thought: you would be be an incredible teacher💕
agreed 😌
definitely!!
Imagine having Jade as a psychology teacher and student coach :)
Agreed
Hey Jade!
I wanna thank you for the content you're making, cuz my girlfriend is a HUGE fan of yours and you always bring a smile to her beautiful face 🥺
Thank you so much 🙏❤️
This is so wholesomeeee🥺
1. Growth (self development, maturity)
2. Independence
3. Liberty and Justice
4. Respect
5. Solitude
6. Bravery
empathy, curiosity, love, growth, and stability
it's interesting that i found each core value is interconnected with each other in a way!
Me too, I got the same conclusion! Courage is connected with growth and health, love is connected with kindness/thoughtfulness...:)
this was such a fun exercise, I love the interactivity - my core values are creativity, liberty, empower, gratitude, and joy!
I did this exercise all the way through with you and I discovered that out of my initial core value picks of security, stability, structure, comfort, order, and control, I chose support. Because I realized I don't need to be comfortable or in charge, I just need to know someone is there to bail me out if I don't want to do it or hype me up if I do. Thanks.
Working out my core values (altruism, connection, personal growth, well-being) a few months after graduating was life changing for me - life is so much more peaceful when you’re living in alignment with your values. It helped me figure out where to concentrate my efforts looking for a job and resulted in a fulfilling career I love. It’s also a really useful tool when I’m find anything difficult; I can so much more easily identify why something is challenging me and what I can do to overcome that. Would recommend everyone finding theirs out💛
My core values:
1. Playful curiosity
2. Bravery
3. Truth and honesty
4. Stability
5. Compassion
This is great, I think mine are: certainty, dependability, learning, openness/honesty, welcoming.
I love these guided journal sessions so much!! I think my core values are balance, independence, knowledge, passion and love.

God I LOVE this video. I'm 23, spent a lot of time being bitter and sad - mainly because I didn’t have a set of core values or sense of purpose. You're so wise beyond your years, wish I had a video like this a few years ago. 🌸💕
I love reading others’ comments and feeling so inspired by Jade’s series & her energy and attitude. Thank you, Jade 🦋
I've always feel so inspire after watching your videos, they're my motivation to start looking out for myself even more, to try to prioritize my needs and my mental health, they're just lovely and peaceful.
This was awesome!!! Mine were: connection, enjoyment/ enthusiasm (couldn’t find the right word for it lmao), growth, and achievement
This video is going to be my reward for spending the day productively today. Thank you Jade ❤️ love you and the positive you radiate ❤️❤️❤️
Ahhh, I don’t know how to describe it but you are a safe space

Jade, thank you so much for this video! I already knew something about core values & living accordingly, but it wasn't until this video that I suddenly realized that these values are the reason that connections with people are easier or more difficult. Moving forward, I'll focus more on people with similar values to live my best life! :)
commitment, grace, passion, uniqueness, learning.

I'm really loving this series, honestly the highlight of my week
wow, it's destiny! i've been thinking about my core values quite often in the past few days!
I’ve read your book the only study guide you’ll ever need
Just want to thank you
I’ve been struggling with exams in year 9 and just as I came out with not so great grades I feel I’ve lost positivity in learning but when I read this book the amount of motivation and understanding from a younger other opened my eyes to how I will see exams sooner
So thank you 🙏
Literally in love with this seriesss!!! 😭❤️✨
My core values are
1. Communication (especially with my loved ones)
2. (Self-) Development (In all areas of my life. Knowing that everything is a process and certain things need time to fall into the right place). But on the other hand actively trying to do your best to make things develope (If that makes any sense)
3. ALWAYS listen to my intuition
4. Gratitude
5. Inner peace and balance
Thanks for a great video, your channel is on of my favorites! I recently noticed that if i don't live by my core values i feel unhappy. Right now i am balancing work and evening classes, and i feel so happy and motivated. Such a drastic change after times when i just laid in bed after work
Mine are family, accomplishment, happiness, certainty and comfort💛
Thank you for always making this high quality content Jade ✨ wholesome as always, your videos truly enrich my life ♥️
Mine are: Balance, Confidence, Creativity, Optimism and Commitment. And I couldnt be more proud an fulfilled. This will help me sp much in the future. Thanks Jade ❤️
I can really recommend "7 habits of highly effective people" by Steven Covey! It's not only about finding your core values but also about living in integrity with them (among other things!). I absolutely love it and find it highly inspiring. Thanks for "summer of self", Jade - i really enjoy it!
Thank you for this serie Jade❤️✨

I just want to say, thank you for making these videos and sharing them with us all on the internet. You’re incredibly genuine and your messages have a positive impact. Thank you. I wish you the best always. From a stranger and friend :) x
I got a notebook and actually sat here trying to figure out my core values. I ended up with: Passion, knowledge, connection, growth and optimism. Some were really hard to cut and I think all the ones in the top 10 really help guide my life choices. Excited to see how my list will change over the years.
omg i’m so grateful to find this wonderful channel 😭
So many of the things you said hit hard 😌 because I never thought about them that way and it made me question a lot of things and learn so much. Thank you jade for this lovely series. Summer of self is such a bliss ☀️💖🦋 looking forward for more !!
I really enjoy watching your videos. ❤️
My core values are accomplishment, creation, happiness, growth , independence and reflective. 😄
ive struggled for so long trying to figure out what my values are...i never knew that this existed..this is absolutely life changing
mine were comfort, growth, independence, passion, and sincerity. i think all of them have been throughout my life except for growth is a new one but over the past few months/year a lot of my decisions have been based on a growth mindset so that value has made its way into my core.
1. Growth and self-discovery: always learning more about myself and the world, improving, developing into a better and more content human
2. Connection and love: directed towards myself, my friends, family, significant other and the world in general
3. Enjoyment: eating tasty food, being in beautiful places, enjoying my job
4. Purpose and achievement: to me finding a purpose, such as writing a book and working towards it is hugely important
5. Energy: feeling alive, being passionate, resonating with the energy of the place and people around me
Honestly, in tough times, i used to give up all the things that are important to me. At that time, I felt like i need time to restart , i didn't know what should I do next and just lie on my bed and surf my social media lol 😂. But now, i tries my best to balance and enjoy my life as much as possible ❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰
I will definitely be trying this. I have honestly been loving this little series!
Love this. I think mine are self-improvement, self-reliance, connection, minimalism, gratitude and creativity. Couldn’t quite get it to 5!
I am only 22 seconds in and this video has helped me understand myself more than i ever thought was possible!!
This was so insightful for me, thank you for sharing this! I would say my core values are acceptance, uniqueness, openness, gratitude and connection 🌈
open-mindedness, enthusiasm, connection, purposefulness and freedom
I thank Jade enough for this series ✨💛🌻🌼🦋
I really enjoyed doing this and it was just what I needed today!! My core values are: Love + connection, growth, honesty, balance and intuition (self-trust). They're reflected in all the major decisions in my life and I wouldn't change them for anything. Now I can make a pretty visual of them to put up on my wall!!! Thank you!
Thank you for such a wonderful series Jade! ❤️
You helped me get through my first solo trip and motivating me to do big things while taking care of myself. Now my decisions will be easier because I know my core values! I wish we could be friends irl but thankful for you ❤
Thank you for this! Mine were empathy, love, kindness, enthusiasm, and inspiring
My core values according to this are (in order):
1. Trust
2. Growth
3. Understanding (and wisdom)
4. Connection (ie love)
5. Achievement
This video came out a year ago but this is what I came up with for my core values:
1. Mental & physical health
2. Growth & awareness (I feel like these go hand-in-hand)
3. Openness
4. Connection & compassion
Also: Would I ever sacrifice these, or have I when I was really stressed?
The short answer is yes, I have. For example during burnout I definitely sacrificed my physical health and growth, but I also believe that practicing things that were aligned with these values brought me back to myself and made me feel alive again. Because of this, I still believe that these are my core values. I think living every day of our lives according to our values is a huge pressure, because sometimes it's very hard to stick to. You could say that if it's so hard to stick to, then they're not your core values, but I still feel like they could be. We're not perfect, and sometimes the values that resonate with us most are the things we need to work on a lot, but feel so so rewarding to us when we do practice them.
Love taking time to reflect on this! My core values are empathy, creativity/adaptability, community/connection, sustainability, and openness :)
Oh Jade, you’re amazing. I love you for doing this for me.
Ah jade!! You are lovely!! Been watching your channel for long and it keeps getting better and my favourite channel 🥺🥰❤️
loved this, really helpful journal prompts jade! my core values are:
1. connection (to myself, others & nature)
2. honesty (being my true self unapologetically)
3. intuition (listening to my gut feelings)
4. gratitude (imo, the key to happiness)
5. balance (mental balance, balanced lifestyle & a balance in how I spend my time)
Mine are creativity, curiosity, growth, joy and security🦋❤✨

Beautiful video! I never even thought I needed this but I did! Turns out my core values are: thoughtfulness, growth, calm, individuality, intelligence
Perception/clarity, hope, contentment, and transcendance are my core values
luv you so much!!! this whole series is so helpful for me! thanks!:)
Oh gosh, the entirety of this video. So raw, meaningfull and inspiring (!) Thank you Jade for radiating with such encouragement and commitment towards self growth journeys 💕
This is so important! I got the universal glyphs for three of my core values tattooed on my forearm as a secret reminder/ affirmation of them :)
Hi Jade! I felt that I needed to leave a comment because this video was sooooo important and relevant to me.
First, I love the fact that just because some values are in a higher position than others, it doesn't mean that these other values are not part of us or of our path in life. This idea made me feel comfortable to write down what I believe to be my core values, with less pressure.
Second, after realizing my core values, I feel that I'm able to make better decisions in so many different aspects of my life, I feel very open to understand a little better what truly fulfills me and how to get it.
So, thank you. It was really fun and also challenging doing this exercise.
Lots of love,
Malu
it was really fun figuring this out, in the end i think these are mine: Comfort, stability, trust and equality
My core values are:
1. Insight
2. Self-security and confidence that allows me to be sincere with myself and others
3. Communication, connection and compassion
4. Growth
5. Presence and dedication
I found it interesting that they passed all the test questions but one, the "Have I sacrificed these in times of stress?" question. I find that under a lot of stress I tend to sacrifice them, especially the 5th - presence and dedication, which to me is necessary to feel happiness and see meaning in anything, and then gradually with more stress I sacrifice other ones, too. I wanted to share this observation because I feel like this is an interesting starting point for getting better at dealing with stress - remembering your core values!
Thank you for sharing, I especially like seeing confidence as something that helps to connect with others, not only as something to feel better about yourself. I will rethink how I see confidence.
hey jade,
this video was so inspiring and helpful, thank you
I have 1. Passion 2. Curiosity 3. Freedom✨✨
