Values, our broad preferences
that determine the appropriate course of action we’d take in a given
circumstance. Your values reveal what you believe in, they are your moral
compass – what guides the way you behave. Values are your most fundamental
asset. Whether conscious of it or not, I, you, and every individual has a core
set of values by which our lives are guided by. Values can range from the supposed
inconsequential, devotion, to weightier, conspicuous belief like integrity, but
no matter what value you choose to uphold, the outcome is outstanding.
Values are not solely individuals-based,
organizations, industries and institutions also subscribe to values. A close
examination of any successful company that exist today in the country will
reveal one or more values that are a key to its success. What organization or
industry in Nigeria comes to mind as successful to you? What business value do
you think is the key to its success?
The key point to keep in mind
about values is that for an individual, It influences attitude, and likewise,
when organizations and institutions adopt values, employees, customers,
everything and everyone else associated with it becomes energized. By identifying
the values that are important to us, we can develop strategies to implement them,
and when we discipline ourselves to follow through on implementing these values,
we are certain that success would be the inevitable result.
I am of the opinion that our
political parties and ministries should subscribe to certain core values, which
will help them fulfill the course for which they were formed in the first place,
making government responsive and efficient, engendering unity, peace and
progress. What is your opinion?
Identify the values that are most important to you now, and start the journey of building a life that is totally aimed for success! Here's a comprehensive list of important personal and corporate values: www.stevepavlina.com
