For my results, I'm going to bend the rules of the process a little and say both Joy and Love are tied for #1.

1. Joy
1. Love
2. Focus
3. Acceptance
4. Awareness
5. Brilliance
6. Abundance
7. Wisdom
8. Vision


What each of those mean to me:

1. Joy
On its most basic level, it means choosing the better feeling thought or focusing on what feels better. On a higher level it means following my bliss.

Other values I'd chosen but "rolled" into joy:
Fun, cheerfulness, happiness, playfulness, enjoyment, bliss, optimism, passion, desire, enthusiasm.


1. Love
Choose love at every crossroad and celebrate it wherever it beckons. Choose what grants joy and freedom to self and others. Offering my best energies.

I see all of these as expressions of love: Compassion, fairness, appreciation, honesty, intimacy, kindness, openness, freedom, and integrity.


2. Focus
Offering continued attention and energy to what is chosen, until it has manifested.

Includes:
Discipline and self-control (control over my focus, mind, and thoughts).


3. Acceptance
The state of allowing and non-resistance - not resisting or pushing against anything ("What you resist, persists.").


4. Awareness
Self knowledge and understanding, expanding consciousness, awareness of feelings and motives, being present in the moment.

Includes:
Consciousness, mindfulness, presence, and sensitivity.


5. Brilliance
Striving to live up to my full potential, applying and mastering my highest understandings, being the best I can be.

Includes:
Mastery, transcendence, and growth.


6. Abundance
Aiming to reach the state of experiencing my ability to attract/create anything that I desire (love, money, freedom, time, etc.).


7. Wisdom
The application of knowledge, intelligence, and understanding for the achievement of highest results.

Includes:
Intelligence, practicality, effectiveness, understanding, efficiency, knowledge, and economy.


8. Vision
Seeing the bigger picture, far-reaching vision (seeing possible consequences of actions into the future), clarity, intuition.

Includes:
Intuition, inspiration, insightfulness, clarity, and clear-mindedness.

This is my 5th time doing this exercise, and I blogged about it in August 2009. It's cool comparing results back then to now.

I notice that out of the 5 times I've done this, Love has only been up there once at #12 (last). Hmmmm. Contribution moved up, so that's a plus.
