P.A.T.H. | A for “ALIGN”

self development
Written By Dwayne Britton

💡 A for ALIGN. In recent posts, I’ve shared how the P.A.T.H. framework has helped me organize my self-development. In this short video, I talk through the second step a little bit more: A for ALIGN.

Alignment is rooted in determining + living into our core values. By identifying what matters most to us, we can work to ensure our actions reflect our authentic selves — elevating our personal & professional lives. 🙌🏻

For me, alignment isn’t about chasing any sort of ideal — it’s more about clarifying direction. 🧭 When our choices reflect our values, we generally feel more authentic, fulfilled & connected to what we’re working toward.

How Does Alignment with Our Core Values Support Self-Development?
✨ Acts as a compass for navigating decisions in both personal & professional life.
✨ Helps us recognize what truly drives fulfillment & prioritize opportunities that resonate with who we are.
✨ Supports clarity + effectiveness in development, coaching & feedback conversations.

Favorite Tools to Support Alignment:

1️⃣ Barrett Values Centre's Personal Values Assessment: A comprehensive tool designed to help you explore and clarify your top values.

3️⃣ Simple Core Values Exercise: A straightforward activity to help you connect with + define what matters most to you.

When we lead with our values, we lead our development with intention. What’s one small action you can take this week to better align with what matters most to YOU? 🌟


PS: Eternal thanks to Robbie Tubajon for introducing me to this work nearly a decade ago! 🙏🏻
