10 Values to Value in Life


Values in life









It’s not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.Roy Disney

What do you do when you pick up a purse on the road? Your action is guided by your values in life. When you think honesty is important, you will look for the rightful owner and return the purse. Your personal values are your lighthouse in your life. You think and act according to what you believe in. Do you think the following values are important in your life? Do you live your life according to these values? Do they bring you success, happiness, and peace of mind?

1.      Appreciation: It is to value what you have. It is also to express thankfulness to people for what they have done for you. It is also an attitude of love and forgiveness and an expression of kindness.

2.      Preparedness: It involves planning ahead and organizing in advance. Knowing what you want in life and working on it every day is the way to be prepared and be lucky and meet success.   

3.      Focus: To know your intention is to work purposefully and pay full attention. Your energy and effort are focused one-directionally. There is not enough time and energy to do everything in life but there is always enough time and energy to do just one thing.

4.      Strengths:  Think of what you can do and focus on your capabilities. You will be self-assured and face this competitive world bravely.

5.      Simplicity: The way to go about in life is to avoid clutter and confusion. Find an efficient and effective way to get things done. The simple way is always the most productive way.

6.      Perseverance:  Be persistent because success is what you do day in and day out and not once in a while. When you know you are doing the right thing, just continue and do not give up. You will see light at the end of the tunnel.

7.      Challenges: Look at problems positively. Life is not smooth sailing all the way.  Meeting and overcoming challenges in life is a certain way to live life and grow.  

8.      Confidence:  Be optimistic because if there is a will there is a way out. Think and be creative and resourceful to meet challenges in life.

9.      Learning:  Value information and knowledge. To stay ahead you have to keep learning new things and gain insights. When you are knowledgeable, you are creative to make changes. Changes mean progress.

10.  Conscience: When you do good, you feel good. When you do what is right, fair, and just, your action will stand the test of time.  You will be appreciated and praised by others,

Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.” – Dalai Lama
