See, if you don't know where your values are, the simple thing is go and check where you've spent your money. If you go and pull out your bank statement, if you spent a lot of your money on education, on learning and growth, then that is one of your highest values. If you spent your money more on buying cosmetics and jewelry and everything else, maybe your highest value is the way that you look. Maybe if you're spending a lot of your money on, on your business, that means that is your highest value. So look at where you're spending your money and you'll get an idea of where your values are. So once you're able to identify your top 3 values, the key is now to build your entire life and business around those 3 values. Like for me, it is freedom, family, and service. So whatever I'm doing is doing— can I build a business that gives me freedom? Can I build a business that can allows me to spend more time with my family? And can I build a business that allows me to serve more people at scale? So find your values and you can change your life.
