Now, the same question goes for real life. What characters do you enjoy most?Positive: Do you like the people who are fun and outgoing? How about the people who have something to say that is interesting, positive, and exciting. Negative: Do you like people who share something negative? Do you enjoy people who are critical? Do you enjoy people who are talking about the worst news story they have heard this week? Now, there is something that greatly distinguishes people you know vs people you see perform. The big difference is their character. The more you know someone, the more you know their character. Their character includes things that other people far away from them may not see. This is more than if they are fun, entertaining, positive, or negative. There are real character traits. Are they liars? Are they hurtful? are they people that you can not trust? Are they loving, caring, someone you can trust. The real character of a person will greatly affect the way you feel about them. |
