What are Your Core Values?
 
What are the principles, standards, or qualities that you live by?  Most importantly, what are your top five core values?  The easiest way to make your list is from a larger list of possible core values.  In the GPS Life Journey curriculum we use a list of 90 possibilities.  E-mail me and I will send the list to you.

Knowing your core values will help you demonstrate character and get and stay motivated.   They are formed in us through people we know and experiences we have.  To be successful in our life purpose it is essential that we know them and reflect on them frequently.  Fernando Cardoso, accomplished sociologist, professor and politician has said, “It is impossible to build enduring institutions (or a successful life) without solid values.”  Much like spokes in a wheel, our values help us move through life honorably, consistently, and successfully.

Directive: Write down your top five core values.  Display them.  Review them.   Live by them.
