Character – Making The World A Better Place

Character Education - Free Resources, Materials, Lesson Plans

• Your character is defined by what you do, not what you say or believe.
   
• Every choice you make helps define the kind of person you are choosing to be.
   
• Good character requires doing the right thing, even when it is costly or risky.
   
• You don't have to take the worst behaviors of others as a standard for yourself. You can choose to be better than that.
   
• What you do matters, and one person can make a difference.
   
• The payoff for having good character is that it makes you a better person and it makes the world a better place.
