Understanding Your Values and Strengths

Understanding Your Values and Strengths

University is a great time to figure out what matters to you. Knowing your values helps you make better decisions — about your course, your friendships and your future.

Identify what drives you

Think about the times you have felt most energised or proud. What were you doing? Who were you with? The patterns will point towards your core values — things like creativity, fairness, independence or connection.

Play to your strengths

You do not need to be good at everything. Focus on what comes naturally and find ways to use those strengths in your studies, societies and part-time work. It builds confidence and makes uni more enjoyable.
