Hey there,
Welcome to Day 3 of the 5-Day Values Mini-Course.
If you've been following along, then this week you've already taken the first real step toward values clarity by making your Joy List—twenty things that light you up and hint at what truly matters to you.
That alone puts you ahead of 99% of people who never stop to ask, "What do I actually care about?"
But you're not done.
Because there's another side to this picture—and it's just as important as joy.
TODAY'S MINI-LESSON: Pay Attention to What Pisses You Off.
Here's something nobody tells you:
Your values aren't just revealed by what you love.
They're also revealed by what you can't stand.
Annoyance, irritation, frustration—these feelings are data.
When something bothers you deeply, there's a value being stepped on.
And that value might be buried so deep, you haven't even named it yet.
TODAY'S ACTION PROMPT
List 10 things that frustrate the hell out of you.
Make it personal. Keep it real. Remember, no one ever has to see this but you. Examples…
- When people interrupt you.
- When someone's flaky or doesn't follow through.
- When things feel out of your control.
- When someone lies, brags, steamrolls, or stays shallow.
- When you waste time or feel disrespected.
If you want to go even deeper, ask: What value is being violated here?
Every frustration is a flare signal from your subconscious saying:
"This matters to me. Pay attention."
