Why do you need core values?

Other people’s agendas are competing for your time and resources. You use a schedule and a budget so that your time and money are used intentionally. Without those tools, you’d live in reaction to other people’s values. Stop making your decisions in reaction to other people’s agendas!

Discovering Your Authentic Core Values walks you step-by-step through a simple process that will help you identify your authentic core values.

These are not  aspirational values.

 
Those are the values you wish were true of you.  We can all come up with a long list of words that we would love to be true of us. Often, that’s all that Core Value exercises lead you to. Those words may be inspiring, but they aren’t who you really are. We’re talking about your authentic inside-out core values that already have played an enormous role in shaping your life.

This little 70-page book is step-by-step guide that will walk you through a journaling process where you can discover these important motivations, and learn how to use them for greater focus, a stronger sense of mission, and more happiness.

By discovering and naming these essential motivations, you can begin to align your life with who God made you to be. Once you’ve done the work of articulating your core values, you have an invaluable aid for an intentional life.

Is this book Christian?

I am a Christian pastor and this material certainly aligns with my worldview. There is even one short section where I address specifically how core values intersect with faith. But the process found in this book is not just for Christians, and many people of different belief systems have found it helpful.
