Values help humans to consider the right action to follow when faced with a decision. Every time you need to make a decision, you need to consider the consequences of that decision. If its going to be good or bad to your life. Values can help you-
An example of a value is Respect.
Whatever you do, you need to have other people in consideration. If you are respectful, yo do not criticise, offend or pass through another person beliefs, culture or religion. The same way others are going to be respectful to yours.
