What Are Your Values?

Do you value principles such as freedom, liberty and compassion for the less fortunate or reverence for life? Do you believe in honesty and truth and sincerity and hard work and success? Whatever your values are, think them through and write them down. If you are having any difficulty in clarifying your values, a very helpful exercise is to take some time to write out your own obituary or eulogy. The act of selecting your values is also the act of clearly stating to yourself and sometimes to others exactly how you will live your life from this moment forward.
