Hi Evergreen!
My core values are so far:
1.Integrity
2.Truth
3.Abundance Mentality/I am enough
4.Courage/Putting up with crap
5.Compassion
6.Love
7.Non-Judgement, Acceptance
These are never changing core values or I don't know if you can actually call them values because they come from understanding not from ego desire.
(Maybe frames is a better word.) And they are extremely difficult to attain.
For example if you don't practice awareness or truth, you might get caught up in stupidities and your integrity can bring non-integrity along with it.
Maybe I myself will not be able to get to love consciousness, but I think if you understand and live them you will get better and better and eventually get very astonishing results. I try to act upon them whether my personality values are humor, family, success etc.
After that I would put my priorities/purposes or qualities which are on the level of personality. They change in contrary to core values and are basically what lights my heart on fire at that time or what I love and care for.
There would be something like learning new things, fun activities, business, family etc.
But core values must precede them, because principle centeredness is a deeper and thus a more effective or beautiful way of dealing with life.
For example: Your level of integrity or the I am enough frame will determine how your familiy life is going to be way more than just making it a priority.
This is my understanding so far, hopefully i could help.  |
