Identity module
Values
Anchor planning in what the client stands for.
Values gives clients a place to define principles, boundaries, anti-goals, and alignment evidence. It helps the rest of HourLife stay connected to identity instead of becoming a neutral productivity machine.
What it changes
A planning anchor for identity and alignment.
Use boundaries and anti-goals to clarify what not to pursue.
Attach evidence when life actually reflects the value.
Bring value context into goals, decisions, and reviews.

Values library
A structured place for principles, boundaries, and alignment evidence.
Workflows
The values flow from principle to evidence.
Define
Write the values in practical language.
Values should be usable in decisions, not just aspirational.
Clarify
Add boundaries and anti-goals.
Knowing what does not fit prevents vague planning.
Connect
Relate values to goals and decisions.
The value becomes part of the operating system.
Collect evidence
Record where life matched the value.
Alignment becomes visible instead of assumed.
Review
Use values during reflection.
Reviews can ask whether action matched identity.
Adjust
Update commitments when values conflict.
The module supports better tradeoffs.
How I use it
How a client uses Values for better choices.
Values is the identity layer. Clients use it when they want decisions, goals, and reviews to reflect what matters, not just what is urgent.
- 1 Write the values that should guide the season.
- 2 Add boundaries or anti-goals to make each value practical.
- 3 Link values to goals or decisions when alignment matters.
- 4 Capture evidence when a value shows up in real life.
- 5 Review values when a plan feels busy but misaligned.
