Families, homes, businesses, organizations, institutions and governments, collapsed because of bad character and that is why character building is very important.
The person can have abilities, skills and qualities BUT lacking character, then end up losing integrity.
CHARACTER CONSTRUCTION
“Good character is more to be praised that outstanding talent. Most talents are to some extent a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it pieces by piece-thought, choice, courage, and determination.” John Luther
“You cannot dream yourself into a character you must hammer and forge yourself [into] one.” James A. Froude

That sounds like a lot of hard work lol, but we all get character just from our experiences and interactions. It might not be the best character, hence your suggestions and the need to change it as u say above. But are you changing it or just learning to hide your real character?
Thank you so much for your comment. Personally, I build it every day and have a personal scan allowing myself to see who the person is I.
I had know idea there were so many facets to ones' character, Johane! Very informative!
