Your values – the BS versus the truth 088

PETER FRITZ | Office Anywhere

Like a lot of you, some of my big ‘life’ questions resurface towards the end of every year. Mine appear on my morning walk or when I’m out for a drive. Lately, there have been two questions vying for attention.

In seeking to answer them, though, I noticed that both are something of a trap, eliciting reflex responses instead of truthful ones. The questions are:

1. What do I value?
2. Who am I living for?

They’re simple little questions; less than five words each, yet the answers can have a profound effect on our lives. If we’re not asking them and then thinking deliberately about the answers, life will hand us a bunch of crappy ones.
