Let us first understand what does character mean?

Character refers to the sum of an individual’s qualities and characteristics which differentiate him/her from others. An individual’s character is actually an amalgamation of his/her qualities which makes him unique and helps him stand apart from the rest.

Character plays an essential role in Personality Development

Remember personality development is not only about looking good and wearing expensive brands. It is also about developing one’s inner self and being a good human being. More than anyone else, you are answerable to yourself.

Do not do anything which you yourself are not convinced of. An individual is nervous only when he is ashamed of what he is doing.

Character is something which an individual is born with and seldom changes with time as against behaviour.

Honesty is an individual’s inherent character which would never change irrespective of his/her situation or circumstance. Would you steal or cheat others just because you do have enough savings with you at the moment? Absolutely NOT — It is just NOT there in your blood.

A person with a good character finds acceptance wherever he goes and respected by all. Character includes traits such as:

  • Honesty
  • Leadership
  • Trust
  • Courage
  • Patience

You can’t force an individual to be loyal towards his organization or for that matter his family members. Character is something which comes from within and is often long lived. A good character helps you develop a winning personality.

In other words, a good character is the backbone of a magnetic personality which attracts other people.

One needs to be honest at work. You need to develop a sense of loyalty and attachment towards your organization. Commitment has to come from within.

Don’t just work for money. Don’t attend office just to fulfil your job responsibilities. Yes, you will definitely receive your pay check but what about your own satisfaction? There is no one who can measure your loyalty or commitment levels. You need to ask yourself Are you really happy with your performance? How much are you contributing towards the success of your organization? Analyze your inner self.

People who are not loyal towards their organization often find work monotonous and as a mere source of burden. The moment you start enjoying your work, your performance will automatically go up. If you waste half of your day, chatting with friends or playing games on the internet no one would come to know except you. Do not lie to yourself. If your lunch time is for an hour, make sure you do not waste two hours in gossiping or loitering around.

Not every one can be a good leader. You need to have leadership qualities to be able to lead your team well. If we take the example of Indian cricket, Sachin Tendulkar is an outstanding cricketer but records prove that he was not a very successful captain. You need to be cool-headed to be a good leader. Remember, your team members might come up with any query which may be logical, may not be logical or relevant. You can’t shout on them, else they will never open up.

An individual with a good character would in turn have a good personality. If you are extremely good looking but do not know how to behave, don’t be surprised if you are ignored by others. Nothing is more important than your character and moral values. Never cheat others. Remember, life is nothing without ethics and values.
