VALUES
Every great design starts with a foundation. Today, we're looking at yours.
What are Values?
Internal Compass
Values help you decide what's right for you when things get confusing.
Safety & Confidence
Living by your values helps you feel more "at home" in your own skin.
"Your values are like a fingerprint. You leave them on everything you do."
How to Sort

DAILY
FLOW
Finding your rhythm and mastering your time.
The Anxiety Buffer
When we don't know what's coming next, our brains can get stuck in "alert mode." Routines help us turn that off.
Predictability
Knowing what to do reduces decision fatigue.
Control
You are the architect of your own schedule.
What is the first thing you do when you wake up? Does it help you feel ready for the day?
Anchors & Flow
Anchors
These are the "non-negotiables." Things that ground you.
Examples: Morning coffee, walk after dinner, 10 mins of reading before bed.
Flow
These are your work/activity periods.
Focus on **Batching**: doing all your emails at once, or all your cleaning at once.

Claiming Your Space
Every high-functioning architect has an "Exit Plan." You need a specific safe zone in every place you frequent.
Home
Where is your sanctuary? The place where you can be 100% yourself and recharge.
Community
At Church or social hubs, where is the "low-pressure" corner if things get overwhelming?
AHS
In the busy school environment, which office or quiet zone is your designated reset spot?
