30.1 What is "What are Your Roots"?
Life begins at the stage of an infant. We age to the stages of baby, young, mature and old. As we age, our circles of influence also grow. Circles of influence - self, family, friends and acquaintances, colleagues, community, society, etc. - influence our roots of values. Roots of values are important as they define our persona and the way we communicate. Roots of values are identified in three forms: surface roots, lateral roots and taproot.
