Thanks for your reply Tim,
You're right, it is confusing.
It seems to me that Values, Identity, Beliefs, Habits, Conditioning (and no doubt others) add up to who we are and what we do. Human behaviour is complex and unfathomable.
It's tempting to think that we can change our results by changing our core Values or Beliefs. Some people believe that simply by 'forcing yourself' to act in a certain way (for 30 days usually) will change the neural pathways in your mind and then the behaviour will become automatic.
Steve (and Tony Robbins) clearly think that Values and Beliefs can be changed at will - with a little effort and planning.
I don't know.
I did do several Values elicitation tests online and the results were consistent with what I'd already suspected: Freedom, Love, Success..in that order.

Are you saying that my Values are fixed and that it would be better to approach things from a different angle?
I'm gonna give this a little more thought, and then I might do one of the 'Steve Pavlina patented 30 day trials' and post the results here. (To determine if a person can dramatically change their Values system/ behaviour/ results)
Thanks for your comments and advice everyone.
