Core Values: DISCIPLINE
Answer each question with a minimum of ten sentences

One of the most crucial personality traits in everyone's life is discipline. It

alludes to a set of guidelines that must be followed when engaging in any task or
activity. Discipline is about overcoming laziness by being productive, either in small or
big ways, as long as there is productivity and progress. It is a strategy for being
sincere, diligent, and motivated throughout any endeavor. Furthermore, it also means
following certain deemed acceptable standards of behavior. The value of discipline
existed with a sole purpose, which is to set orderliness and punctuality in whatever
endeavor we will be doing, whether at school, work, or business. Life itself is full of
choices, so basically, the value of discipline serves as a radar for us and cannot be
ignored. In the context of success, one cannot reach success without having self-
discipline, for the reason that discipline serves as a bridge from your goals to your
accomplishments. Discipline is something that we need nowadays. As a student,
discipline is essential since I can use it as a tool to keep on track with my personal
goals, maintain a schedule for my schoolwork, and cultivate a stress-free mindset
within myself. With the current learning system today, discipline must be applied since
we're almost facing our gadgets due to some online research, but it's also addicting
not to do schoolwork and waste our time surfing on our social media accounts.

As a student, I can demonstrate the value of discipline by starting with small yet
simple things. The first is to be responsible enough with my own trash by properly
throwing it inside the designated trash bins. Even seeing another’s trash, I will initiate
to throw it voluntarily. In addition, be diligent about passing assignments and projects
on time and not waste any time. If a certain task is being given, I’ll do it immediately
to avoid cramming. Furthermore, I will create my own timetable in order to organize
things—what are the things that need to be prioritized, and so on. This will result in a
stress-free life as a student. Lastly, I need to remind myself that I have goals and I
should not lose heart, and in that way, there will be consistency in practicing the value
of discipline because, as the saying goes, “discipline is rarely enjoyable but almost
always profitable.” What I sow is what I reap in the future.

Core Values: SERVICE
Answer each question with a minimum of ten sentences

Service is the act of doing something beneficial for someone without expecting
anything in return. It implies serving with love rather than against one's will. It is an act
of humility to sacrifice one's comfort and needs for the common good of others. One
should be selfless enough to serve genuinely. Genuine service must be done out of love,
sincerity, and without complaint. In this way, an individual can be able to touch the
hearts and lives of other people. The main pre-requisite for serving is having love and
passion for helping other people. Helping may take the form of using your time to
volunteer in any charity organizations, utilizing your expertise in teaching out-of-school
youths, and other acts of service. Furthermore, it is not necessary that you give tangible
things in order to serve, but it is the intention, effort exerted, and willingness to help
that matter the most. Remember, not all are blessed with material wealth, so be a
channel of blessings to others when you have the capacity to serve in your own little
ways.

Service is something we should include in our lives, especially in light of recent

events in our society, since it teaches us how significant it is to help the ones in need,
the ones who are less fortunate than us. With how chaotic our world is getting, we need
to unite and connect with one another through practicing the value of service. As a
student, I can demonstrate the value of service by simply helping my classmate who’s
struggling to absorb a certain lesson by rediscussing the lesson again, lending my extra
money to those people who really don’t have financial capability, being a good listener,
being an encourager to my classmates when discouragements occur, helping others to
shine in their own ways, and lastly, by respecting the opinions of other students,
knowing that at the University of the Visayas, they accept foreign students, which
means they accept cultural diversity.

As the saying goes “By serving others, you feel useful”, it reminds us that we are
meant to be in service with one another. Having a positive impact on someone else's life
reminds you of the value you bring and gives your life a purpose. Lastly, being in service
to others means you are also serving the one who created us.

Core Values: ENVIRONMENTALISM

Answer each question with a minimum of ten sentences

Environmentalism is a distinct way of thought in which individuals strive to

bemore concerned with the earth and the long-term survival of life on Earth. It entails
recognizing the planet's environmental challenges and devising solutions (both
individually and collectively) to address them (Woodford, 2022). Environmentalism
encourages assisting in the preservation, protection, and restoration of the natural
environment. As stated also by Eco Redux (2022), environmentalism is crucial for
protecting our planet. It sets rules and regulations that safeguard our environment
from harm. It ensures we use the earth’s resources sustainably, without depleting
them. This value is a must for us to develop a sense of responsibility, initiative, and
concern for mother nature. Furthermore, taking part of this value has no definite age
but everybody. As we can all see, our environment is slowly deteriorating due to
harmful human activities. To think logically, we are still the one who will suffer of the
consequences for mistreating our nature. This needs an antidote, and that antidote
should start from us, individually.
As a student, I should express my genuine concern for our environment by doing
basic actions such as properly disposing of trash whether be it my trash or not,
planting trees even at our backyard, and recycling garbage. Another way could be
conserving water and electricity by simply turning it off when I’m no longer using the
electricity and the water faucet. Frankly and honestly speaking, I canreally say to
myself that I still lack more concern towards our environment. I think this is an urgent
call for me to be a catalyst towards a more sustainable and green world. It is a must
for us to foster the value of initiative so that we can do good for nature without being
instructed and even when no one is looking. As I have observed, the value of
environmentalism must be instilled in the minds of the people nowadays since as time
passes by, as innovation increases, our environment is at great risks. Everything that
we are utilizing for our survival simply came from the nature itself, so let’s not destroy
our own shelter. Remember that Mother Nature is our refuge. We should not be its
adversary. We should always put in mind that "Mother Nature doesn't need us; we
