ESSAY ON FAMILY CONTRIBUTION TO MY VALUE SYSTEM

Value (personal and cultural)

A personal and/or cultural value is an absolute or relative ethical value, the assumption of which can be the basis for ethical action. A value system is a set of consistent values and measures. A principle value is a foundation upon which other values and measures of integrity are based. Those values which are not physiologically determined and normally considered objective, such as a desire to avoid physical pain, seek pleasure, etc., are considered subjective, vary across individuals and cultures and are in many ways aligned with belief and belief systems. Types of values include ethical/moral values, doctrinal/ideological (religious, political) values, social values, and aesthetic values. It is debated whether some values which are not clearly physiologically determined are intrinsic such as altruism and whether some such as acquisitiveness should be valued as vices or virtues. Values have typically been studied in sociology; anthropology; social psychology; moral philosophy and business ethics. Values can be defined as broad preferences concerning appropriate courses of action or outcomes. As such, values reflect a persons sense of right and wrong or what ought to be. Equal rights for all and People should be treated with respect and dignity are representative of values. Values tend to influence attitudes and behavior. For example, if you value equal rights for all and you go to work for an organization that treats its managers much better than it does its workers, you may form the attitude that the company is an unfair place to work; consequently, you may not produce well or may perhaps leave the company. It is likely that if the company had had a more egalitarian policy, your attitude and behaviors would have been more positive. Personal values Values are an integral part of every culture. With worldview and personality, they generate behavior. Being part of a culture that shares a common core set of values creates expectations and predictability without which a culture would disintegrate and its members would lose their personal identity and sense of worth. Values tell people what is good, beneficial, important, useful, beautiful, desirable, constructive, etc. They answer the question of why people do what they do. Values help people solve common human problems for survival. Over time, they become the roots of traditions that groups of people find important in their day-to-day lives.

Personal Value System I was raised in a small town in a middle class family. My father has a government employee and my mother was a stay at home . From as far back as I can remember my father has a very strong man with superior morals and values. My parents never sat me down and explain to me what a persons character, morals or principles were. It was through there examples and way of livingthat these things were instilled in me. My character was developed by my parents, my environment and the people around me who I admired and respected. My personal value system consists of 3 characters that I feel is the core of who I am as a person. * Personal Beliefs * Family Values Personal Beliefs- My personal beliefs are the essence of my character. It is what I aspire to be and how I want to come across to the people in my personal life and in my career. The most important of these character traits are honesty, integrity, kindness, caring, respect, loyalty and responsibility .
