Character

In the book, As A Man Thinketh, by James Allen, he uses the word character 24 times. 

This is one of my favorite references to character:
"The aphorism, “As a man thinketh in his heart so is he”, not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but it is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts."

I base my personal actions on one simple question: "Do I do the right thing even when no one is there to see or hear?" If you can answer yes to that question your character is obvious. If you answer no to that question your character is obvious. 

How you live your life isn't suppose to impress others, it is suppose to impress yourself. If you are unhappy, that is all on you. If you are angry, that is all on you. Anything you feel, is all on you. It's all in your mind and has nothing to do with anyone else or how you THINK they make you feel. You decide those things. You and you alone. 

Change your mind, change your character.  <3
