Building Resources is committed to creating a culture in which everyone has an equal opportunity to create, grow, influence, and lead. Our Core Values are essential to our success as we shape the conversation of what is possible when you lead with kindness, a positive mindset, gratitude, and self-awareness: Kindness: We believe kindness unlocks people and launches relationships, so we choose to be kind even when we could lose an entire relationship. Positive Mindset: We believe our thoughts have the power to shape our reality, so we ask, "What good can come from this?" in every situation, even when it seems like none can. Gratitude: We believe gratitude is intrinsically tied to our enjoyment of life, so we say "thank you" and "I'm grateful" as often as possible, even when WE don't feel appreciated or we are in hard situations. Self-Awareness: We believe that we all have blind spots, so we work to see ourselves from the other's perspective even when we feel 100% correct. Work Ethic: We believe fulfillment and success follow diligent work, so we ask ourselves daily, "Am I proud of the work I did today?" even when we know we may not like the answer.
