How do we understand the strength of someone's character, whether they're toxic, whether they have high values?
Besides the things that we can see of like, okay,
they broke their word or they're negative or things like that.
How do we really determine someone's character?
First thing you have to do to realize that determining people's character is the most important thing
that you have to do in judging them.
So if we're looking, let's say we're looking for a business
partner or a romantic partner or a colleague to work with.
We're going to base our decision on those kinds of appearances.
Like people can be very good at deceiving you with being very charming and flattering,
or they have a brilliant resume, and you'll be seduced by that.
And what you want to do, the first step in that law is to say,
no, that's not how I'm going to judge people.
My main value is their character and the strength of their character.
And character is something from deep, deep, deep within.
The word character comes from the Greek kairos. which means to carve.
And character is something really deeply carved inside the person.
It's who they are at their core.
It creates patterns of behavior that they can't even really control.
