The Values

COURAGE

Be brave, not perfect

Take thoughtful risks. Think independently. Step outside of your comfort zone. Don’t conform.

CURIOSITY 

Embrace new perspectives

Treat life as an adventure. Keep an open mind. Get below face value. Be a good listener. Pay attention to signals as well as words. Ask, don’t assume.

AUTHENTICITY

Show up, be YOU

Say what you mean and mean what you say. Be yourself, regardless of the audience. Be present. Be true to your word.

HUMILITY 

Live Humbly

Give generously. Forgive freely. Take responsibility for your own actions. Acknowledge and apologize when wrong. Choose quality over quantity. Winning isn’t everything. Recognize other’s strengths and your weaknesses.

RESILIENCE 

Obstacles are Opportunities

Roll with the punches. Adapt. Evolve and reprioritize. Accept the unknowns. Embrace creative solutions. Stay strong in the face of adversity.

It’s hardest to uphold these values when the going gets rough. THE PROPER MISFITS do it anyway.

  • Ask the question you’ve been afraid to ask
