Scanning my values provides me with a guide; then I\u2019ll identify a principle (or develop one) that brings me back into alignment with those values. In this case, I would use the principle<em class=\"adb\">\u00a0\u2018prioritise and execute\u2019<\/em>. This involves taking a step back, assessing the situation, and choosing the task that will have the biggest impact. When I execute the primary task, I move on to the next one, and then the one after that. When I implement this principle, I immediately have clarity, and I\u2019m no longer overwhelmed.<\/p>\n<p id=\"b6d8\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph abk abl ux abm b vr abn abo abp vu abq abr abs sp abt abu abv ss abw abx aby sv abz aca acb acc th bx\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Another example involves inaction, or what\u2019s commonly known as procrastination. This usually surfaces as a feeling of unease and clearly conflicts with my values of\u00a0<em class=\"adb\">\u2018industry\u2019 and \u2018accountability\u2019<\/em>. When I recognise this, I\u00a0<em class=\"adb\">\u2018take relentless action\u2019<\/em>\u00a0to get back on track.

For instance,\u00a0<em class=\"adb\">\u2018boldness\u2019<\/em>\u00a0is one of my core values. If I\u2019m not taking enough risks, I tend to get restless and bored. When this occurs, I implement one of my favourite\u00a0principles,\u00a0<em class=\"adb\">\u2018set audacious goals\u2019.<\/em>\u00a0However, this action tends to conflict with other values and principles, such as\u00a0<em class=\"adb\">\u2018patience\u2019, \u2018balance\u2019, and \u2018show up every day\u2019.\u00a0<\/em>In this case, context is key, but it\u2019s important to prioritize your values.
