Life values assessment

When creating this list I was sure what was to be by number one, wisdom. Without wisdom I feel no other value would matter, but when looking back on my day, I realize that wisdom was in fact not a large part of it and regrettably so. I went through my day waking up in the morning, going to work, and completing homework without any real thought of why I was doing those things. I did not think of how I was able to do them, and why I was given the opportunity. Even though wisdom was not a large part of my specific activities today and has been largely apart of my life at other points, and has shaped the person I am today. Without a personal understanding of myself and a sense of my goals in life, then none of my daily activities would have meaning thus I would experience an entirely different life. Because my family is largely the reason for my religious and personal beliefs they have constituted each one of these values in my daily life.

Service was on my top five list of values, and though I have been involved in many forms of service before, it is not a part of my everyday life. Service can come in any forms big, small, and whatever the form it is something I wish I would take a second each day and think about more. I have yet to involve the level of service I wish to have contributed to this far in my life. The only thing standing in the way of that goal and any other goal I may have is solely myself. I believe that one can do anything one sets there mind to, and there should be no excuses or obstacles standing in your way. If I believed otherwise then it would simply refute many of my life values including integrity, wisdom, etc. I believe that God will not make a mountain that you cannot climb, thus if I stated objects that were standing in the way of my goals, I would be invalidating my own beliefs. Though  I do not involve each one of my values in my everyday life, they are always there, and I am the only person standing in my way of those values. Sometimes we live life to quickly and don't slow down enough to realize what is around us, what our values are, what are rational for our action or therefore lack of action are. Wisdom
