Hi Stephanie, allŠ
Great article and fits in with my work on clarifying visions of desired
results at multiple levels.
Many actions which are difficult to take on their own (say, jog 5 miles)
become much easier to do when considered in the context of valued results
(health, fitness, emotional masteryŠ etc).

I think this is a good place to put in a plug for Martin Seligman's
Signature Strengths Values in Action assessment.  I have had great success
personally, professionally, and with my clients using signature values as a
starting point.  See www.authentichappiness.org for the VIA assessment.  It
only take 10 ­ 20 minutes.  Also the Strengthfinder assessment was useful.

Cheers!
Bruce
