Slipper
Camp: A kinder, gentler boot camp designed to assist you in living well.
Camp
Motto: Being kind to yourself makes you strong.
Instead
of target practice and rope climbing we will educate, equip, and empower
ourselves through a series of mini-workouts focusing on mind, body, and spirit.
Today’s
workout: Determine your core values.
Many people believe you need to start a new year with resolutions
and goals. We often approach these with stringent and tough tasks that focus on
the physical aspects of our lives. Your assignment today:
List the three most important aspects of your life. What do you
value most?
List no more or no less than three. Write them down or type them
out, and make sure they are visible to you.
You may add or subtract from them for the next week. Once you have
confirmed the exact three items, congratulate yourself. These are your core
values. Ask yourself how your current goals and actions reflect your values. If
they aren’t in line, change your goals and actions, not your values.
Example:
Mary’s goals
for the New Year were to lose 25 pounds, and workout three times per week.
Mary’s three most important values were her family, her health, and her career.
If Mary works her goal to lose 25 pounds she will be contributing to her
physical health. Her mental health and her spirit also are vital to well-being
and health. Mary changed her goals to include reading from a self-help book
every week, setting up a family dinner and no TV night, and taking on an extra
project at work to promote her value with her employer.
Today’s Task: Determine your core values. Begin repeating them to
yourself every day. Move your actions and goals in line with your values.
