“If you haven’t already clearly defined your values, you may find yourself making choices that conflict with what you want. If, for example, honesty is a big thing for you, but you hang out with liars, there’s a conflict. When your actions conflict with your values, you’ll end up unhappy, frustrated, and despondent. In fact, psychologists tell us that nothing creates more stress than when our actions and behaviors aren’t congruent with our values.” IfsWantMayEndsFactsBigsActionValuesChoicesHavensHonestyExampleConflictBehaviorStressWhat You WantUnhappyDefinedFinding YourselfLiarsHanging OutFrustratedBig ThingsOur ActionsPsychologistMaking ChoicesDespondent Author:Darren Hardy

“The key to becoming world-class in your endeavors is to build your performance around world-class routines.

“Forget about willpower. It's time for why-power. Your choices are only meaningful when you connect them to your desires and dreams. The wisest and most motivating choices are the ones aligned with that which you identify as your purpose, your core self, and your highest values.
