That’s okay 😃 I used to struggle to understand it…
Am I doing what I say I’m going to do? Do words and actions match up? Does my word actually mean something? Can it be trusted?
Do I follow through on something when I say I’m going to finish it?
Empathy towards others - have I really put myself in their shoes? Am I putting other people first?
Am I doing the right thing here?
Do we get out of a hard situation or get stuck in and do the hard thing?
Am I telling the truth or bending it?
I have little goals relating to my life based on some of the above…
By the way my answer to the above can often be no… but being aware of it as much as possible through self reflection and facing the truth is an amazing start and again, good character
I’m a huge fan of and listen to Roy Keane whenever the opportunity comes up like I’m sure many other people do (his interview on the overlap on YouTube now has over 7 million views 🤣 - I reckon I’ve watched it 10 times!), he would probably think that’s pathetic!
He mentions ‘good character’ a lot and I always used to wonder what he actually meant by it and how to get it and have good character!!
Maybe it’s some of the above…
A lot of the above is from a book called the 21 indispensable qualities of a leader by John C. Maxwell… the first chapter is on character and that’s where my notes are from and where I started to learn about it 😃
