How can you relate your values to your strengths? Below, list two of your values along with one sentence about how that value is
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

If a person sets some values for himself/herself, then he will lead a more happy, determined and satisfactory life. Our values are things which we consider our important and should be followed by us.

Two of the values which I think are strengthening in my life are:

  • Always being positive: I have learnt that keeping your mind positive will lead to better opportunities. The more  negative  my mind will be, the more will be the chances for every situation to turn into a disaster. This value has led me to become strong and strengthen my believe on myself.
  • Avoiding taking or giving loans: One of my values is to work hard so that I never find myself asking for money. This strengthens my faith in me.
