Values are beliefs that control our actions, they keep us on the correct path in life. Three values that matter to me are integrity, respect and success.
One value that i think is important is integrity because being honest with yourself can result in a less harmful consequence, lying means being dishonest or not telling the truth. This is a value you can have in life because when you get a job you wouldn’t want to lie to your boss. Positive feelings come from being honest about yourself and accepting your personality, and physical characteristics, from belonging to a family that accepts you without question.
The second value that I think is most important is respect because when you are respectful to others you usually get that respect given back, for example speaking politely to other in a respectful manner.A helpful quote said by Charles w , “A healthy democracy requires a decent society; it requires that we are honorable, generous, tolerant and respectful”. Being respectful is a polite way to show manners and express the way you feel to others.
The third value is success, this means setting your brain to certain goals to achieve specific standards.We need to be successful so that we can get somewhere in life and achieve more. Success means achieving goals in life.A quote written by Henry Ford reads“Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success”.
In summary values guide us towards the correct path in life, taking us step by step following through the values one by one.
