As you strengthen your Personal Foundation, you’ll find yourself having a lot more time, energy and space in your life. What to do with this? Start fully expressing yourself by setting goals based on your true values.

WHEN A PERSON ORIENTS AROUND THEIR VALUES

• Goal setting is easier and goals reached more quickly.
• Their life purpose/vision comes to them clearly.
• Fewer distractions occur; life is simple, but rich.

WHAT HAPPENS UNTIL ONE DOES THIS

• Frustrated in goals area; lacking strong reference point in life.
• Goals, wants, ideas keep changing.

THE 10 STEPS TO FULLY EXPRESSING YOUR VALUES

❑ Identify your core or rolemodel values by answering the following question: What three qualities do you want to role model for others? [This is the simplest way I know to clarify our core values. For an example, my three qualities are respect, compassion and wholeness. ]
❑ “Get” that you are your values and that expressing these values is what will have you feel fulfilled in life.
❑ “Get” that goals are more fun when linked to your values.
❑ Set 1 goal to match each role model value identified above.
❑ Let go of goals which can’t be linked to one of your rolemodel values (unless they strengthen your Personal Foundation).
❑ Begin working on each of these goals immediately.
❑ Reach each of these goals.
❑ Identify your #1 Value: Your Key Value.
❑ Raise a Personal Standard through-the-roof in order to help you more fully orient around your key value.
❑ Discover your Life Purpose as expressed by your #1 Value.
