6. I'll be ending this series today by taking a look at "Aligning Your Life Goals With Your Values. #Flourish  

7. We all have values whether we've made conscious effort to recognise them or not. #Flourish  

8. Values are the standards that influence how we live our lives, our work and how we relate with people. #Flourish  

9. When you recognise the things important to you and allow them influence your lifelong decisions then you're on your path to happiness. #Flourish  

10. Values are like shortcut to important decisions you make through life. #Flourish  

11. They help you identify the principles you stand for and help you pattern your choices in that direction. #Flourish  

12. A woman who values career success and achievement wouldn't mind accepting a transfer out of her location to a distant state. #Flourish  

13. One point worthy of note is that values change depending on what phase we are in life and the changes that occur in our lives. #Flourish  

14. Therefore that same woman may become unfulfilled when she starts raising a family. #Flourish  

15. A feeling of imbalance and inner chaos occur when your life pursuit are in contrast with your values. #Flourish  

16. A typical example is when you have a value of honesty but compromise it for economic reasons. #Flourish  

17. You sacrifice your inner tranquil which eventually drains you of your inner strength. #Flourish  

18. When we pursue dreams that violate our core values, we end up more depressed than people without accomplishments. #Flourish  

19. Here is an exercise for you. Make a note of the things that are important to you and why you think they are. #Flourish  

20. As you do, take note of  the inner values that emerge in between the lines. #Flourish  

21. You may need to continue this exercise over a period of time until you have the principles and standard you live for all spelt out. #Flourish  

22. What goals have you set for yourself in life? What goals are you in pursuit of this year? #Flourish  

23. Are they in violation or in honour of your values? #Flourish  

24. When these two are in perfect agreement, you gain extra strength and confidence to overcome barriers to your success. #Flourish  

25. Producing the best of results also becomes easy. #Flourish
