Marry YourSelf First Success Principle #3

Success Principle #3


Values and Priorities


Your values determine what’s really most important in your life. So, what is most important in YOUR life? Your values are the underlying foundational pieces that you've determined to be the most important parts of your life. In other words it’s those standards and principles that you truly stand for. It’s what to fight for and make a stand for. It’s what you'd be willing to risk embarrassment for. It’s what you’d be willing to speak out for even if the numbers were not in your favor. And it’s what you might even be able to be willing to put your life on the line for. So, what is it that you truly value the most? Is it health? Is it family? Is it freedom? Liberty? What is it that you truly value? Find out and live accordingly!

Your priorities, on the other hand, are your day to day choices about the activities you determine to be most important to you. Typically people's priorities are correlated with their values, maybe not exactly but there is a significant correlation. Your values system will help you to determine what’s most important to do every day. And furthermore, your values and priorities will help keep you on the path of your purpose and your vision, because they should all be in alignment with each other. Let me repeat that: Your values, your vision and your purpose should all be in alignment with each other.

It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are. ~ Roy Disney

Marry YourSelf First Success Principle #2

Ken Donaldson

Success Principle # 2


Vision

Vision is not just what you see - the vision I’m referring to is where you’re going in your life. Once you've discovered why you’re here - the purpose of your life - then you need to figure out where you’re going with your life. And the best way to do that is to have a vision to know exactly what it is that you’re aiming for. And the more specific you can be the better.

When you have a specific vision, that vision will actually serve as a magnet and as you work towards it, it will also pull you towards it. People who don’t have a vision for their lives, or don’t have a clear vision, usually tend to stumble, fumble and mumble through their lives. These same people tend to get lost and stray away from their life path and because of that, they often never truly live a fulfilled or meaningful life.

When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind. ~ Seneca
