of one's values."

Values
What do you stand for? What are your principles? What are your core beliefs?
What virtues do you aspire to? What will you not tolerate? What would you sacrifice
for, suffer for, and even die for? The answers to these questions will reveal
your values.
Your choices and decisions are based on your values. Whenever you have to make
a decision, you will invariably choose the alternative that is in line with your
values. When you are clear about what you value, then you can effectively plan
and organize your life.
Values are difficult to define, but they are the foundational beliefs that anchor
your life - the things that matter to you the most, the immutable characteristics
that define your identity. Values comprise the core of your being. Values are
the basis of your character, actions, attitudes, ethics and personal beliefs.
