Personal Values
Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing
It's relatively easy to work out the prices of THINGS because they can be measured, weighed, or appraised. But life's greatest treasures are intangible and, therefore, immeasurable. I can borrow a cup of sugar, but not a cup of love. I can buy four pounds of beef, but not four pounds of forgiveness. And I can rent an 800 square foot apartment, but not 800 square feet of wisdom.
Yes, a job, money, and possessions have value, but their value is in what they add to life. And what they add is spice. They represent the salt and pepper of life. The meat of life consists of the intangibles: friendships, relationships, love, service, creativity, civility, kindness, and spirituality, to name a few. Our values form our character and define us. They shape who we are. They are what make us memorable. Our values are what make us valuable. They give our life meaning, purpose, and direction. They guide our choices and direct our lives.
Value yourself
Value Compassion
Value Passion
Value Knowledge
Value Kindness
Value Time
Value Mentoring
In short Personal values are principles that define you as an individual. Personal values, such as honesty, reliability, and trust, determine how you will face the world and relate with people.
I hope this helps you. LL.

Personal values are something that you believe in, like what is right and what is wrong.
How you place and treat your family and children in your life.
What values you put on different aspects of life, money, religion and citizenship.
Everyone values are different.

personal values are your moral values. what you believe in and stand for. like do you personally believe in abortion, whatever you decide is your personal values. they're basically just your standards for yourself and what you feel should be for others.

Your beliefs. Do you like being stranded in traffic? Do you like going to church? Do you like to walk in the rain? Do you vote Democrat or Republican? It is just your belief system that makes
you the unique person you are..
