"Character is destiny,” is a quote attributed to the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus. This quote implies that destiny, or fate, is not a predetermined outside force, but that one’s future, or destiny, is determined by his own inner character.
Please share your ideas on how one can improve their character.
I see "improving Character" as more of winning the battle within and being at peace with your inner self.
We all have our “inner demons” we’re battling with. Your character no matter how hidden would always show up in how you act as it affects your mindset and actions.
Another thing to remember is your character is built in the nitty-gritty moments of life.
The hardest times and the most difficult moments bring the most powerful lessons and experiences you will ever have in your entire life.
“Character is not something you buy, it is not a commodity that can be battered for; it is not a quality suited for only the rich and famous; rather, character is built upon the foundational commitment of love, honesty, and compassion for others.” - Byron L. Pulsifer
Integrity is the practice of living by one's moral and ethical code, which is a sign of character.
When I got into college, part of the school’s anthem was “knowledge, genuine and pure …in character and learning.”
It resonated so much with me because at a point in High school, I got frustrated with mediocrity and desperate to be on top that I started cheating in most tests and exams.
Then I noticed without cheating, I was getting dumber.
One poor decision like that can hurt your integrity and character as a whole so much that I swore in college to rather fail than cheat again.
A key to protect your integrity is to ditch your 𝙗𝙖𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙩𝙨 so you can find your true integrity.
Think before you pop off and say, “I will do such and such.“ it doesn’t matter if you are talking to a three year old or an adult. Just do it.
