Career
achievement and inner moral character are ideally in partnership. Both must be nurtured. What was
suggested in the last entry called 'résumé virtues and eulogy virtues’ is that we concentrate sometimes on the first and experience
little about moral and spiritual accomplishments that make us truly wonderful
people rather than merely successful.
When
we explore further the difference between résumé
virtues and eulogy virtues, and delve into the treasury of qualities that make
for resounding inner character we discover these kinds of assets.
An Inspiring Humility that moves from
a candid self-awareness that admits personal shortcomings and moves to a focus
upon other people.
A Confrontation with Personal Weakness that admits and
addresses a principal fault in order to become strong and mature in temperament
and attitude that is winsome to others.
A Life Deeply Rooted with Others intentionally moves away from the notion that a whole life can be managed and enjoyed individualistically or autonomously. This is a person who understands that authentic high-end character requires dependence upon others in order to convincingly overcome egotism, greed, and self-deception.
