The Power of Values-Driven Actions

Taking a stand on one's values requires holding those values strongly enough to handle rejection and unpopularity. Being values-driven means prioritizing values over the need to be liked or secure. Being values-driven brings a deep sense of satisfaction and a warm feeling inside, similar to the feeling of doing a good deed. It substitutes the ego-driven needs with a greater sense of purpose and fulfillment. The journey of personal development and living through values fosters authenticity, credibility, and the ability to make a difference. Identifying one's values, understanding their importance, and taking steps to test and live by them can lead to new profitability and meaningful social relationships.
