Map commitments to underlying values rather than surface goals, because values are directional and never completed while goals expire upon achievement or abandonment.

This principle derives from Values exist in a hierarchical structure with terminal… (hierarchical value structure), Human motivation exists on a spectrum from controlled… (spectrum from controlled to autonomous motivation), and The three basic psychological needs are autonomy… (three basic psychological needs). It prescribes a specific mapping strategy (values over goals) that follows from the structural differences in how values and goals function motivationally.
