What is Character?
Gratitude. Generosity. Integrity. These are traits that may describe a person鈥檚 character, but character is deeper than a list of traits.
The foundation of character is the personal set of principles or beliefs that shapes one鈥檚 actions. These underlying principles or beliefs may come from one鈥檚 family, friends, religion, entertainment, activities or even social media threads. They lead one to act in certain patterns and behaviors, which can be defined as character. Character can grow over time as principles are practiced or can transform over time as beliefs change.
