Typically, my GPS…

All kidding aside, I take direction from my purpose, values, and morals.

Purpose- I enjoy reflecting on why I do what I do and how I can improve. This guides me in a growth mindset because it encourages me to identify ways to step out of my comfort zone. I am able to discover areas of strength and weakness.

Values- Values help guide me not only in who I am, but also who I want to be. My values are instrumental in determining qualities that are important to me. They guide me in knowing who I want to spend my time with, what is important to me, and what I desire in life.

Morals- Ensuring that I am doing the right thing. While this may vary for people based on culture, upbringing, and priorities, for me, morals include honesty, kindness, and respect.

This guides me in the direction for decision making, especially with major life and career choices.

What are your guiding principles? What gives you direction in life?
