Summary

Clarify and reinforce your core values.

Core values – such as freedom, security or compassion – shape your personal identity and guide you toward meaningful goals. Reflect on them to provide a powerful source of internal validation and intrinsic motivation; they help you stay calm under pressure and push forward with your best work.

To define your core values, start with what you want and work backward to discover why you want it. For example, if you want to earn more money, is it because you want to support your family or travel the world? If the former, you may value security; if the latter, freedom. In either case, write down why that value matters to you and how it has shaped your life. Apply the same process to arrive at three core values. Then, use code words to turbocharge their impact. Code words anchor your mind in your core values.
