Prioritize Values To Decide
- Prioritize your values in order so every major decision aligns with your top priority.
- Let your highest value override lesser ones while you “follow one course until success.”
Test Options Against Your Top Value
- Evaluate each option by whether it contributes to your top value, like five-year financial stability.
- Reorder values if another priority (e.g., relationships) becomes more important.
Focus Requires Trade-Offs
- Prioritizing one value requires trade-offs and temporary sacrifices to meet that goal.
- Focusing intensely on one course increases the chance of success and later satisfaction.
