Should I buy a Porsche Cayenne?
Wisdom, Effectiveness, Freedom, Family, Authenticity
I love expensive & pretty things! This
car would align with my value of
authenticity.
I would have the freedom to drive a
little faster & maybe even more
sportier.
Pricey vehicle - might mean
sacrificing something someone in
the family really needs.
Online reports reveal lots of repairs
and downtime - that will offend my
sense of effectiveness.
I like a car that mostly only needs
oil changes & minimal maintenance.
Cost of maintenance and repairs
(and resulting downtime) will make
me feel like this wasn't a wise choice
I can feel my blood pressure rising
thinking about how many trips I
made to the mechanic.
I will probably have sold the car
long before the 10 yr mark for
offending wisdom & effectiveness
Same as 10 minutes
I have only kept one car for 10
years so this may not be relevant
A fancy car to pass onto a child

Should I stay at home and read? (vs driving hours for my Aunt’s Birthday Party)
Wisdom, Effectiveness, Freedom, Family, Authenticity
I love doing what I want - it honors
freedom.
I love reading books - it honors
wisdom.
I will miss out on seeing all the
family at my aunt’s party.
My aunt is sick. If she doesn’t live
much longer, I will regret missing
her birthday.
My aunt is not likely to live this long.
What if I miss her last celebration?
Regret!
Will I remember that I sat on the
couch and read?
I will not remember I stayed at
home to read.
