A short YouTube video by Donald Burns guiding viewers to identify and connect with their personal core values. Burns recommends an exercise: write down words that spark emotion (examples: happiness, respect, sustainability, innovation, leadership) and choose words that genuinely resonate rather than sounding impressive. Emphasis is on authentic connection to values, not surface-level or performative choices.

Chapters

Gotta remember that your core values are a reflection of you. Connect with the words and phrases that resonate from deep within. An easy way to start is to simply write down words that spark an emotion inside of you. Happiness, respect, sustainability, innovation, leadership. Do any of those words trigger emotion? The important thing to do is find words that you truly believe in and that are a part of you. Don't go for words that just sound good on the surface or or you think are going to make you look good. Core values have to have a true connection to who you are.
