Purpose Through Pillars.

​"Core values are essential for living a fulfilling and purposeful life. They provide a sense of direction and purpose, help individuals navigate the complexities of life, and serve as a compass that guides individuals towards their goals and aspirations."

​

"Studies have shown that living a value-based life is associated with increased well-being, better mental health, and higher levels of life satisfaction."

​

-BrainFirst Institute, 2014.

​

 

"The current research supports the role that purpose may play in protecting people against common mental health disorders...the best way to view purpose is to conclude that purpose will facilitate approach-oriented behavior, foster adaptability to navigate challenges, and help individuals feel a sense that their lives have meaning, coherence, and a consistent thread of direction."

​

-Boreham & Schutte, 2023.

​

"Carefully chosen core values serve as guiding principles. These become particularly important when the stakes are high and alternative courses of action exist." 

 

-Sigurdsson, Johann A et al, 2020.

​

 

"When people are true to their core values personally and professionally, they remain true to themselves."

 

-Guillemin et al, 2022. 

​

 

"Evaluation of data from 1,238 older adults showed that, during a five-year period, those with the highest sense of purpose in life have 57 percent lower risk of mortality."

"A key technique for bringing values to the workplace is values leadership. Reicher and others have pointed out how the leader identifies and understands the values of the individuals and communities in order to lead them. At work, the leader becomes one with their staff."

​

"First, work must provide the means to food, shelter, clothing, health, and the fulfilling of responsibilities. However, once these essential requirements are met, work has the potential to serve other human needs, including one’s core values. Work based on core values gives sense and meaning to it and aligns with the individual and the values that drive people’s lives."

​

"Core values are those essential values by which a person measures their life, even when those values are diminished, denied, or removed."

​

-Guillemin & Nicholas, 2022.
