7 – Your Core Values

What are Values?

Values are who we are. What we value determines what life means to
us and what actions we take. When we honour our values consistently,
life is happy and fulfilling.

Two fundamental areas have an influence over the happiness we
experience in our lives, and they are our values and our beliefs. This
section will set out to explain the importance of understanding the
impact that values can have on our accomplishments. Beliefs are
covered in the next section.

Values are the supporting framework for our beliefs and are strongly
connected to our identity. Our primary principles and way of life are
controlled by our values. They give us direction and motivation to
accomplish tasks and face challenging situations.

By the end of this section, you will be able to identify your core values and relate them to the specific areas of your life we mentioned in section one, which
once again are :-

Family Life Love Life Social Life
Personal Development Health Attitude
Career Finances Spiritual

Why are our values so important ?

It is only when we identify our core values, the things that really matter most to us, the processes on which we base all of our emotions, decisions and
choices, that we come to realise how important they are in our search for happiness and peace.

Whether we are conscious of it or not, we have inner values that strongly influence our outward behaviour.
