If I asked you to name your 3-5 core values, how would you respond?
I often relate values to a lighthouse:
Regardless of dense fog, crashing waves, raging storms, or any other external factors, a lighthouse stays steady and true, serving as a guidepost at all times. Similarly, our values are always there to connect with, lean on, and serve as a guide, whatever is going on around us as well.
We all *have* values; when we are clear on them, we can more intentionally make decisions and take actions in favor of them. This helps support our sense of fulfillment, purpose, and overall alignment.
I recently shared an article in my Reading And Purpose newsletter highlighting the three different ‘layers’ of core values, as well as how you can activate them in meaningful ways. This article also links to an earlier one offering specific ways to begin uncovering your own core values.
Both articles are available to the public, so feel free to subscribe to Reading And Purpose and read them here!
