When the high score is confirmed to one item. Like career, while others have low score,
it simply indicates there is no balance in your life. Your life goals are confined in aspect, you
forgot that there are equally important things in life which you have taken for granted such as
your family, God or yourself.

REFLECTIONS:

1. Look into the distribution of your scores, what does it say about hierarchy of the
values? What have you given priority in your life? What have you neglected?
2.

Answer:

The result of my assessment often got a score of moderate. In the assessment shows
that I was more give priority to others than to myself and just keep them happy. During
the assessment I have low importance of myself, but the people around me makes me
happy as well. Maybe I will try my best to give value and give some rewards for being
who I am.

3. What do you think are the consequences that resulted from your neglect in
attending some other important values? If there is an abuse, anyone could go to
the court and file appropriate charge (e.g. libel cases).

Answer:

I only neglected myself at some point I tend to do in my life. The outcome would be my
health would be affected. Also, the chances of being taken advantage of people I trust
or helped would possibly because I tend to prioritize others rather than myself.
