What are VALUES? Part 1

Beginning to understand and appreciate the VALUE of knowing my own top VALUES

DISCOVERY, Preferences

Today it is HOT to my standards (over 80 degrees Fahrenheit) and that combined with some mysteriously persistent grogginess, found me uncharacteristically WANTING to hold still, yet not SLEEP. Perfect time for an AUDIOBOOK! :D On Audible, I am listening to What do WANT out of Life by Valerie Tiberius and the first chapter talks about VALUES. Funny, cuz on Chirp I am listening to Productivity Project by Chris Bailey, and it has also been mentioning the importance of knowing your personal VALUES. In addition, I have been letting the Spirit lead me in learning about making better use of my time, essentially using my “free time” to INVEST in my VALUES, using my TIME to create Health and build the Accomplishments, Skills, and Knowledge (ASK) that are significantly important to me.

One thing Bailey recommended — two morning walks ago for me, lol — is to Google “List of Values”. Being the overachiever I tend to be, I not only googled that phrase, but I combined my favorite five-to-seven lists plus added several words that I thought were missing. I now have my own list of over 200 values, ready to produce into a shareable PDF. In order to keep this BRIEF in the name of posting these “steps” of my “Jo Journey” as often as possible, I am going to end this one here, and hopefully add that printable PDF list of VALUES along with what ELSE I am learning and creating, in the next post.
