What is Character?
Character is a major part of our personality. Our behavior, how we think, and how we feel are all based upon our character. Although there are many qualities that make up a person’s character, they are generally broken into six main categories:
- Accountability
- Compassion
- Fairness
- Generosity
- Respect
- Trust
Each of these categories contains traits that make a person’s character unique. Remember, though, that we all have positive character traits, such as self-control, thoughtfulness, and loyalty, and negative character traits, such as anger, resentment, and frustration. Together they help guide us in how we think, act, speak and make decisions. Decision-making is a critical part of your unique character.

Developmental changes, peer pressure, and outside influences can all affect an individual's decision making.
