3. Core Values
More than just preferences or priorities; they are born out of your
most deeply held beliefs.
Core values are also a critical part of your purpose because they
are a big part of answering the question “Who am I?”
If you haven’t clearly defined your values, you’ll often feel like
you’re simply drifting along in life.
“A wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind...double- minded and unstable.” James 1:7
Instead of basing your decisions on a well-defined internal compass, you’ll end up making choices based on emotion,
circumstances, and social pressure as you try to fulfill other people’s expectations instead of your own.

4. Core Values Values Can Change!
Values are not innate. The can change and be adapted. We must be consciously aware of what our values are and how they are developed.
Our values are shaped and internalized based on our life experiences. They impact us everyday.
Living in opposition to core values causes internal struggle, frustrations, and & little forward momentum.
Violating your core values is like fronting – you can only hold a front for so long
Part of the lack of fulfillment from not knowing your purpose comes from cognitive dissonance

5. Core Values Values are Filters
Values and beliefs are filters through which we see the world around us.
Most importantly, values provide maximum leverage for change in your life.
If you only change your environment, behavior, or capabilities, the transformation may be short-lived.
- Values and beliefs are the most powerful areas for leveraging change in your life!
