Having a list of core values is an incredible way to guide your life and the choices you make for yourself and others.
And down below, I’ve included some core values (or personal values) for you to look over and choose from.
These are common values that individuals and even programs use, but just make sure not to have an oversized list of core values. The more you have the more overwhelmed you’ll be.
Just choose anywhere from three to four values to make your main focus and allow them to change your mindsets, habits, reactions, and priorities.
They really are a great way to shape you as an individual and will help you to start achieving different goals in life.
What Are Core Values?
Core values are foundational principles that influence decision-making, behavior, thoughts, and interactions, shaping how a person or group engages with the world.
They completely shape your mindset, guiding you in a certain direction, helping you learn from your past mistakes, and making you a much better person.
And the more you’re guided by good core values, the better your life becomes.
