#Character

A story about the fight inside a person, and the uncomfortable question of which side you have quietly been supplying.

The truly powerful never need to announce themselves. Humility is not weakness but a deep, unshakeable form of strength.

The trap that swallows most people the moment things start going their way.

One is rooted and quiet, the other brittle and loud. Telling them apart, in yourself and others, changes how you live.

The few people worth keeping close, and a simple test for spotting them.

A pattern visible in nearly every truly accomplished person: the more there is to say, the less they say it.

The quiet poison of small conversations about other people, and how to step out of them without burning bridges.

The principle the modern world keeps half-believing, and the difference it makes when you take it seriously.

The world judges results. A deeper accounting weighs the heart behind them.

You cannot model what you do not embody. The most demanding form of self-work most people will ever do.

The simplest and hardest test of character there is.

The quiet, accumulating power of being someone others can rely on. Few things build a life more steadily than a kept word.

The most powerful tool you carry is the one most often used carelessly.
