Abstract

In this paper, at least one scripture has been identified in relation to character. The scripture will show how people can still bless others without looking for anything in return because hard work has its rewards. Aristotle’s outlook on character was based on when people have to make sudden decisions without thinking. People tend to act out of character when they think no one is paying attention.
