 Character…
Principles of Character: (goodcharacter.com)
Your character is defined by what you do, not what
you say or believe.
Every choice you make helps define the kind of
person you are choosing to be.
Good character requires doing the right thing, even
when it is costly or risky.
You don't have to take the worst behavior of others
as a standard for yourself. You can choose to be
better than that.
What you do matters, and one person can make a big
difference.
The payoff for having good character is that it
makes you a better person and it makes the world a
better place.
