There's good in the worst of us and bad in the best of us, till it makes no sense to talk about the rest of us.

We are judged by our character. People may like or hate us for whom we are. Start by being good to yourself first, in order to set a good example to others.

Character manifests as decisions, and is returned: "Do the right thing and the right things happen".

Character is but a reflection of one's personality! It's the sum total of what he actually is.

Character is to become aware of the SELF; live every moment with full conscious. Our biggest enemy is our lack of self control, because of which we become victim of decisions that we regret later; to be able to get control of our senses, we need to lead a life of moderation and control our desires. The only way to allow our true SELF to emerge is by practicing restrain. Do not allow your senses to delude you overshadow your real character.
