Character

Character is developed through conscious decisions as one go through life's journey. As Richard G. Scott said "The bedrock of character is integrity." "You solidify your character by consistent correct choices." Good choices requires good thoughts. Thought is probably the only thing one can have control over. We can be more proactive in managing our thoughts. Instead of passively allowing negative thoughts from occuping our mind, we can actively engage our mind in positive and good thoughts. Ezra Taft Benson taught that "Thoughts lead to acts, acts lead to habits, habits lead to character, and our character will determine our eternal destiny." If one wants to have a successful character, one should start to have successful thoughts. I believe reading, watching, listening to wholesome materials can fill our mind with good thoughts. We can easily find successful quotes, good books, motivational talks, uplifting videos and music, etc to help us to develop successful thinking pattern which leads to successful acts, then successful habits and eventually a successful character.
