THE SEVEN CRITERIA FOR A VALUE
Choosing freely
Where do you suppose you first got that idea?
How long have you felt that way?
Is there any rebellion in your choice?
How many years will you give to it? What will you do if it is not good enough?
Choosing from alternatives
What else did you consider before you picked this?
How long did you look around before you decided?
Did you consider another possible alternative?
Choosing thoughtfully and reflectively
What would be the consequences of each alternative available?
Have you thought about this very much?
Just what is good about this choice?
Prizing and Cherishing
Are you glad you feel that way?
How long have you wanted it?
What good is it?
Affirming
Would you tell the class the way you feel some time?
Would you be willing to sign a petition supporting that idea?
Do people know you feel that way?
Acting upon choices
What are your first steps? Second steps? So on…
Have you made plans to do more than you have done?
Where will this lead you? How far are you willing to go?
Repeating
What are your plans for doing more?
Has it been worth your time and effort?
How long do you think it will continue?
