Values are those things that are important to me.

Values are qualities that

one considers to be worthwhile and as such. A person’s values take
precedence over other qualities and therefore dictate the manner in which an
individual may act in particular instances. In my life, I have a number of values
that I hold dear.

I have my own values, beliefs, and attitudes that I have developed

throughout the course of my life. My family, friends, and the experiences we
have had all contribute to our sense of who we are and how we view the world.
These values are a result of my upbringing, my principles in life as well as my
socialization. I greatly value close relationships with my friends and constantly
seek to cement the same. This is because good friends can assist one achieve
his/her goals in life and can sometimes even be closer than family. For this
reason, I invest a lot of time and effort in my close friends. I make it a priority to
be a part of the significant moments in my friends’ lives such as their birthdays.
Values affect my action and behavior towards others.

Values impact the choices that I make as well the actions that I take. I
have come to the realization that my values greatly dictate how I treat the
people around me as well as how I prioritize matters. I believe that as a result of
my values, I strive harder to achieve the things that I want in life and as such, I
am a better person as a result of them.
