Career/Employment Values Question/Values Check

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, I'm new to the group. I've been reading various act texts over the

past few months, Dr. , Russ , and some others...ACT has so much to

offer to help our lives and I find it fascinating.

I've recently been starting to determine and list values for myself, and I've

learned that values are not goals and are a life direction we will be taking

indefinitely. I have a long term goal to earn over $75,000 per year, but I'm

not sure what value this would be in the service of. Value = Building Wealth?

Growing Income? Financial Gain? Do these seem like legitimate values to

everyone? It almost seems like the having a value like Growing Income, or

Building wealth can almost be seen as a goal (Although for instance Building

Wealth could be a chosen life direction)...Yes, I may be just looking at

semantics, but I'm taking my Values clarification and goal setting processes

very seriously.

-Thanks!
