In ancient Greece, certain schools of thought defined “character” as “the traits, qualities, and behaviors of an honorable man.” Philosopher Heraclitus compiled a list of what was considered essential, in a man of great character:
Fortitude
Strength of Mind
Courage
Temperance
Self-Discipline
Self-Control
Prudence
Practical Wisdom
Righteousness
Justice
Trustworthiness
Knowing Right from Wrong
Each is timeless and applicable today, tomorrow, and forever.
