I think if you really can connect to your values, you can...

A lot of values decisions may cost you something in the short term, but it's almost always the right decision in the long run.

I think your core values are the non-negotiable principles that guide your behavior and decisions.

Some people, they're really stressed to figure out their purpose.

If you can figure out your values, they're like the pillars and the purpose is kind of like the roof that sits across all of it.

I went on like a three or six month journey to figure out my core values.

And when I had that definitive list, I started making a lot of changes in my personal life and in my business.

Every time the company doubles, you have to decide, do I want to be that leader, that CEO?

I think if you really can connect to your values, you can...

Good to see you.

Thanks.

I'm glad I made the cut.

I'm sure it's hard to get back.

Always hard to get back.

I've been doing work with people on this concept of core values for a while, and it was one of the things that made the biggest change in my life.

And I think we have these rules and we have these things we should follow.

I think the problem for most of us is we don't actually know what they are.

We know kind of when we've made a mistake.

So I like to say it's not super helpful if you hit the electric fence and you get electrocuted and you're like, oh, I shouldn't have done that.

Having done a lot of this work on core values, and I think the compass within is, how do we figure out what it is that's most important to us so we can make decisions about what directions to go into and not to go into?
