What Are Your Values? Part 1

What are values? Why are they important?

First, I will define ethics, values, morals, and principles. The definitions I provide are subcategorically truncated and shared from my own personal worldview—from the perspective of myself living life. I see the concepts of ethics, morals, values, and principles often interchanged. I think it’s important to understand they are actually very different, though are related via nuance and hierarchy. My intent is to express my own way of navigating and orienting in the world with the hope that it is helpful for others¹.
