Embrace values
value-driven life is like an engine-driven vehicle, and one without values is like a vehicle without an engine. Values drive us to achieve our goals. The four values-dedication, knowledge, trust and responsibility-are like four cylinders or core values that energise the engine for excellence in the right direction. Your life should be such that it helps you assimilate these values. When good values guide your life, the world seems like heaven. Adi Shankaracharya says in the Bhaj Govindam: 'Nitya anitya viveka vichara'-reflection on discrimination of what is eternal and noneternal; what is permanent and what is passing. Values are simply the knowledge of what lasts and what passes away.
