"Character is
 
−
built by becoming strong and determined, patient and observant. Character is not personality. Character is an abiding
 
−
strength, the willingness to wait, a focused determination, and a patient approach.... Character, then, is a development of the person. With character you can begin to build a foundation and continue
 
−
building it for as long as necessary. It may take the rest of your life, but every advancement here is permanent. And every
 
−
contribution made in the building of a real foundation is shared with others, by demonstration and by presentation."

"Build real relationships. Begin with your relationship with Knowledge and develop character by developing patience, forbearance, restraint, objectivity, compassion, the ability to observe others and the ability to have your life be undefined. This builds character, and with this you gain a greater capacity for experience. This is Wisdom. And in order for you to be a vehicle for Knowledge in life-to be an inspiration to others and to give your life wholeheartedly-you must have this foundation and you must have your essential relationships."

"[When praying for another],do not try to

strengthen a preferred outcome, for you cannot usually know the right

outcome for any other person. But you can always give strength of
 
−
character and strengthen their faculties of mind. This will give you
 
−
your own sense of purpose and will reassert these qualities within
 
−
yourself, for you must possess them to give them, and in giving them
 
−
you realize that they are in your possession already."
