Product Description

Product Description

Character is one of the greatest motive powers in the world. In its noblest embodiments, it exemplifies human nature in its highest forms, for it exhibits man at his best.**** Men of genuine excellence, in every station of life-men of industry, of integrity, of high principle, of sterling honesty of purpose-command the spontaneous homage of mankind. It is natural to believe in such men, to have confidence in them, and to imitate them. All that is good in the world is upheld by them, and without their presence in it the world would not be worth living in.-Samuel Smiles

Best Ever Book About Character 3 May 2009
By Deborah Bullard - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you came from a lot of dysfunction in your family, you may have missed alot of lessons in good character. This is the best book ever, and I might add the only book you will ever need.

The best self-help is to correct one's character 11 May 2011
By HFG_All the Wonderful Things - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I came across this text looking for something more on the level that children would comprehend to supplement the Islamic texts on the subject. This is an excellent work and excellent reminder - that courses, classes, self-help, seminars, coaching, none of it will truly change anything. That change has to come from the self and the correction of one's character.

I highly recommend the text, it is not a difficult read.
