Good Character
Character is a very ephemeral term because it's difficult to define what character truly is. The definition of character would vary depending on what country you are in, the historical period you inhabit, and the culture you are socialized by. A pretty general set of terms associated with good character would be honesty, integrity, self discipline, interpersonal abilities, and a strong reputation. These skills are consciously developed over time by overcoming difficult situations with poise and intelligence. The keyword is consciously, because these skills won't happen accidentally. You must work at it.
