“The Six
Pillars of Character”
1.) Trustworthiness: To be trustworthy means that you are a
person who is able to be trusted by others no matter what. Being trustworthy is
very important when establishing relations with people. It allows you to be given
more tasks or privileges without being questioned. If on the contrary you are
not a trustworthy person, people will not rely on you to get things done.
2.) Respect: Being respectful is perhaps one of the most
important qualities that anyone can have because they open up opportunities. If
you are able to treat other people with respect, there is no reason for why
they should treat you any differently.
3.) Responsibility: Responsibility helps a person demonstrate
their capacity to get things done in a correct manner. Responsibility is needed
on a daily basis as it can help you in school, work, and in your life in
general.
4.) Fairness: Fairness is held by a person who believes in
doing what is right and when it is right to do. Believing in justice and
equality comes with the possession fairness.
5.) Caring: We can care for many things in the world, for
example, our friends and family as well as our pets. Caring helps you to be
able to give and receive love. Caring can be shown by being compassionate.
6.) Citizenship: Being a good citizen is also extremely
important as it helps you stay away from trouble and make the place you live in
much more desirable. In order to show citizenship you need to obey authorities
and attend to your responsibilities as a citizen.
Reflection: The six pillars of character are influential in
our everyday lives and should be kept in
mind when making decisions.
