In the mornings, as I walked from the train station to the office, I planned my day by making a to-do list in my head: the scientific articles I would read, the data sets I would analyze, and—most urgent of all—the insights into human nature that it was my job to discover.Each evening, I went back to the station, again going through my mental checklist but this time sizing up my performance against the expectations I’d set for myself that morning. Time and again, when comparing my to-do list with my got-done list, I felt disappointed because I had fallen short.But one day, something very strange happened. During my trip home, without any conscious intent, my thoughts began to shift. Instead of feeling bad about my weaknesses, I said aloud very softly:I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person. I’m a nice person.By the time I boarded my train, I was done with my little chant—until the next day when I walked home. And again, after counting my failures, I found myself saying quietly:I’m a nice person.It turns out that there’s a technical term for this practice:values affirmation. And what it boils down to is recognizing, and strengthening, the personal values you hold most dear.When you affirma core personal value, you shore up your sense of self-worth. You broaden your outlook: Instead of focusing on your shortfalls, you switch to a wide-angle view that includes your resources and opportunities. And the people who do this are happier, healthier, and more hopeful.Over time, I made progress in my research and learned a lot about what makes most successful people special, including this: Nobody has passion and determination unless what they do lines up with their values.Tryvalues affirmation for yourself and teach the practice to your students. Take a moment and think of a value you hold dear, whether it’skindness,creativity,orgratitude. Whatever it is, name it. And then say to yourself:Come what may, I know who I am.Your values are your foundation and your compass, too. Trust them, and they will lead you home.
