My Personal Values

My parents have had a significant impact on who I am and the way that I approach my studies. My mom has always pushed me to do my best in my academics and ensure that I know that there are near infinite opportunities for me out in the world. My dad, never having gone to college, encouraged other aspects of my life. He and my mom have been separated for almost 10

Values and morals are an integral part of life; values define who we are on a personal and professional level. My personal and professional values are similar but are used differently on a personal and professional level. In this code of ethics I have identified my core values as respect, honesty, loyalty, integrity, professionalism, and responsibility. Developing a code of ethics has provided me with an opportunity to reflect on my values and evaluate how I turn those values into action.

My two parents, Sheritta and Darryl were once one in the same, but they are different in many ways. Sheritta, my mom, is the good parent. She is altruistic rather than selfish, so she ensures that everyone is happy, before herself. Darryl, on the other hand, is an egotistical person who only cares about himself. Maybe it is because he grew up without a father, and has no one to look up to on how to be one, but he is well aware that he is a horrible father. The two are also different in personalities. Sheritta has always been an amiable person with a fluctuating mood between happy and sad. If there is a person in need she makes sure they have whatever it is they need even if she doesn’t , so to speak. She isn’t really happy unless everyone else

In what ways are your values, beliefs, attitudes, assumptions and self-understandings reflections of economic, social, educational or other systems?

Starting from the very beginning, my mom and dad. There is this stereotype about teens that they do not like there parents. I am the total opposite, I wanted to be around my parents all the time. People close to me have always said that I look just like mom, which is true. When I was young my mother and I were very close. As I grew up, my dad and I grew to be best friends. I get my looks from my mother and I get everything else from my dad. The way I act, work, talk and, handle life is all because my father. My father, Kip, he gets theses same factors form his mom and dad. It runs through the Chambers family tree and I plan to pass

My dad and I have a love, hate relationship, but I know he only wants the very best for me. Secondly my parents work to the best of their abilities and sometimes beyond to provide a stable shelter for my sister, brother and I, sometimes the way they do stuff my not be what we want but they always find a way to get what I

Things that are valuable to us can be things that are old or that have family value and some of the values can also come from our memories. Some of the values that we have, might not be bought with money. There are many treasures in the world but it is all in the person.Everyone has a different perspective of what something valuable can be to them. When people who have the chance to get anything they want, they don’t seem to value everything they have but when you compare it to a person who doesn’t have the chance to get everything they find even the smallest things valuable to them.

Personal values reflect what we think is important in life. Such as, the decisions we make and the actions we take. Being seventeen-years old, I value the respect from younger people. I, however, have various influences in my life, which have shaped my values. For example, 4-H has taught me how to be a leader. My mother, with her hard work, has taught me how to work for what I long to have. High school has taught me to be superior than my peers and not to fall prey to peer pressure. In addition, work has demonstrated me to do what I love. As a result, I found what I am passionate about. After all, these influences have shown me how to be successful and achieve my goals.

My family and I have had our differences in the past. My dad is a hard working man who works many days and nights. I never think about how hard it is on him to support our family on a daily basis. I never have thought about thanking him for his hard work. I realized that I do not need to take advantage of my dad and his actions. He has always done everything he can to give our family the best of everything. I did not realize until I grew up and matured what all he has done for us. I have a good relationship with my parents, but some people do not. The characters in the stories following all have different relationships with their parents. Robert Hayden, Joyce Carol Oates, and Alice Walker show the different kinds of parent and child relationships.

Values are those things that are important, meaningful and valued by an individual, a group of people, or an organization. Whether we are aware of them or not, every individual has his or her core set of values, which consist of many different kinds of values. Each individual’s value system is different from one another because individual’s values are built up through one’s life experience, environment, and family background.  Values are important to us because they reflect our personal moral standards, shape our behavior, and guide us through long life journeys.  Since we live in a highly connected society, each person’s value system does not only affect one’s own life, but also affects many other people and the

1. I believe my personal values of justice and wisdom strongly correlate with social works ethics and values. The NASW Code of Ethics actually list social justice and competence as values in the social work profession, which are very similar to my values of wisdom and justice. My personal values greatly influenced my pursuit in social work because they have motivated me to seek wisdom as a social work student but also fight for justice where inequality prevails. The values of justice and wisdom have been guiding my life since an undergraduate student when I majored in both Women and Gender Studies and Political Science. I believe both majors laid a strong foundation for values. A major influencer in my pursuit of social work was my

Core values are a person or an organization's fundamental beliefs, these principles prescribe behavior along with helping people understand the difference between right and wrong, “values are what motivate you in life. They are what guide you along the path of fulfilment, so essentially your values are the foundation of who you are” (C.Worsley). These values are important to have because they are what shape you, they make every person unique. Having a spirit of adventure, perseverance, and having patience are only some of my core values. Knowing what you cherish is very important and is something many people should revise.

My personal mission is to constantly strive to be the best overall person that I can be within my personal and professional life. My goals are to inspire and help others and myself around me to achieve greatness and a balance that will maximize our potential that will transcend the boundaries of our dreams.

The three components that you must consider when you evaluate the morality of an act is by the objective act, the subjective motive, and the situation of the circumstance. For each of these acts, we also follow the moral laws which are external, universal, and immutable. Moral values go against the moral laws because they focus in on internal and relative meanings. God wants us to follow the moral laws because that is the true action while moral values make you decide between good and bad. The objective act is the easiest of the three acts of morality because it means not to do any evil. Most people do not want to cause evil on other people, yet some people find it enjoyable to do bad things just for the fun of it. When you commit this act you are always certain that you are doing and you know of it. If the person had no intentions except for doing evil, then it is an objective act. An example of the objective act would be to take a lollipop away from a baby and to throw it away afterwards. Because the act of taking one's lollipop away and throwing it away serves for no purpose than you making the baby upset, it is an objective act because you did something wrong just to do harm.

My personal values act as a basis for determining right and wrong in my daily life. My life, my parents, my husband and my children have all played valuable roles in the development of my core values. The following is an ever changing personal ethics creed, that I plan on using to help guide me in my endeavors.
