Cycle 2 Session 6 - Values 

Values

Your values are usually set up during childhood by your STANDARDS of living and your environment.  You are taught how to FEEL about what has a high or low value depending on what you have, need or want in comparison to others. This can show up in the way you show and accept charity from others. 

Self-Reflection Questions

WHO has ever tried to take your value away?

WHAT are some signs that someone values you?

WHERE do you get your values from?

WHY must values come with an emotional connection?

WHEN you share your values with someone who doesn't respect them, what do you do?

HOW do you show charity to others?

Self-Reflection Points

• We all want to be our personal best according to the values we were taught. 

• Your childhood values can spill over into adulthood, causing you to unknowingly pass down traditions.

• Your values are an emotional connection to what you have or what you need.

• We all have the need to feel like we are being treated equally and fairly in comparing ourselves to others. 

• Just as we have a need to feel valued, we must understand that others need to feel valued as well.
