How to Apply This
-
Learn the eight “moving-away-from” values.
These are the emotions/values we’ll do the most to avoid feeling. They are: rejection, anger, frustration, loneliness, depression, failure, humiliation, and guilt. -
Arrange them in order of importance.
Rank these values from 1 to 8, where 1 is the value you are most likely to avoid, and 8 is the value you are least likely to avoid.
Number 1 on your list is the value that determines your behavior in most environments.
