Good character is the single most important attribute of a successful and worthy life. - Michael Josephson
Character is more important than intelligence for success. –
Gilberte Beaux
When the
author thinks of character, she thinks of various words, so she decided to see
what Merriam-Webster defined it as.
Character is “one of the attributes (see ATTRIBUTE entry 1 sense 1) or
features that make up and distinguish an individual”.
In last
week’s tip, the story of John Stephen Akhwari was discussed. Akhwari had setbacks when he was running the
marathon, but his character was strong, and he finished the marathon no matter
what challenges he encountered.
When the
author heard this story, she thought about her own life. It has not been an easy year and she has had
some difficult times. Through the challenges,
the author hopes that her character has been strong and showed through.
Many things
will come and go, but one’s character will last forever.
ACTION: Through difficult
times, how does your character hold up?
What can you do to work on that going forward?
