Tony looked at the way he set up his days as a routine but really the way he did things on a daily basis was the way he valued them. How Tony spends his time and money each day correlates to what matters most to him in reality. Two forms of graphics were created to example his week. A pie chart to illustrate how he spends his hours each week (168 hours) and a bar graph to show what money he spends on a weekly basis.

Our personal values are the core of who we are and guide us in the decisions that we choose. This reflection paper is based off of the “Forced Choice Values Inventory” test that myself and a partner completed.
