The Values Bullseye is an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy worksheet for checking whether daily behavior is moving toward what matters. Values are not goals to finish. They are directions that can guide choices in work, relationships, health, learning, and personal growth.

This worksheet uses a simple target layout: the center means your actions are closely aligned with your values, and the outer rings show areas where life has drifted. Writing one closer move turns reflection into a practical next step.

Use it when you feel stuck, distracted, or pulled by short-term pressure. The aim is not perfect alignment. The aim is honest noticing and one small action that reflects the kind of person you want to be today.
