Clyde Lee Dennis here, and today in our seven good minutes extra segment, we're diving deeper into

that powerful quote. The clearest path forward is always found by first understanding the values

that call you home to yourself. This quote speaks to something profound about human navigation

through life. Just as a ship needs to know its home port to chart the best course, we need to

understand what truly matters to us

before we can make meaningful progress in any direction. The phrase, call you home to yourself,

is particularly important because it suggests that our deepest values aren't external impositions,

but internal truths that feel like coming home when we honor them. When you're living in alignment

with your core values, there's a sense of rightness,

of being exactly where you belong.

It's not always easy or comfortable, but it feels authentic.

These values act like a magnetic pull, drawing you toward choices and actions

that reflect who you really are beneath all the roles you play and expectations you carry. The beauty of

this approach is that it makes decision-making less about external validation and more about

internal alignment. Instead of asking, what will others think? Or, what's the smart move? You can ask,

what choice honors the values that call me home to myself? Take a moment to reflect on this question. What are the values that make you feel most like yourself when you honor them?

These might be values like compassion, creativity, honesty, adventure, or service. Whatever they are for you, they're the foundation of your true north.

Here's your affirmation for today.

I trust the values that call me home to myself,

and I allow them to guide my choices with wisdom and authenticity.

Until next time, I'm Clyde Lee Dennis,

and this has been seven good minutes, extra.
