Character
is rooted in your core beliefs and values,
representing your internal moral compass and
aspirations.
Personality
is the external expression of how you behave and
interact with the world, reflecting your current
disposition. |

Both character and personality
significantly shape your
identity and actions, though
character often influences
personality over time. "What
lies behind us and what lies
before us are tiny matters
compared to what lies within
us," said Oliver Wendell Holmes.

"All that we are
is
the result of what we have thought... The
thought manifests as the word; The word
manifests as the deed; The deed develops into
habit; And habit hardens into character. So
watch the thought and its ways with care, And
let it spring from love born out of concern for
all beings."
~

Character refers
specifically to your moral and ethical
qualities. It
is a more stable,
internal set of
beliefs and values that guides your actions,
especially in difficult situations. "The
ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands
in moments of comfort, but were he stands at
times of
challenge and controversy," said Marin Luter
King.

Every man alone is sincere; at
the entrance of a second person hypocrisy begins. |

Character Ethic and
Personality Ethic
The elements of Personality
Ethic, such as
communication skills,
influence strategies, and
positive thinking, are
essential for success, but these
are secondary, not primary
traits. "You can pick up quick,
easy techniques that may work in
short-term situations. But
secondary traits alone have no
permanent worth in long-term
relationships. Eventually, if
there isn't deep integrity and
fundamental character strength,
the challenges of life will
cause true motives to surface
and human relationships failure
will replace short-term
success," says Kenneth
Blanchard, the author of
Leadership and The One
Minute Manager.
Only basic goodness gives
life to techniques. To
achieve great results, focus
first on yourself – your beliefs
and values, your deepest motives
and perceptions – and then on
your techniques.
