When we were young, our teacher told us to be a good man.We wash our hands before we eat.We turn off the light when we leave the room.We share our candies with our friends.As we grow up, we learn different things.We learn to improve our leadership skills.We learn to develop our communication ability.We learn to acquire all means that lead to succeed.We notice a shift from the character ethic to the personality ethic.But is being a good man an eential condition of succe?
But as the national economic grew so fast in the past 10 years, people became more anxious to achieve quick succe and get instant benefits.The basic view of succe shifted from the character ethic to what we might call the personality ethic gradually.Succe became more a function of personality, of public image, of attitude and behaviors, skills and techniques.I am not suggesting that elements of the personality ethic--personality growth, communication skill training, and education in the field of influence strategies and positive thinking--are not beneficial, in fact sometimes eential for succe.I believe they are.But these are secondary, not primary traits.Perhaps, in utilizing our human capacity to build on the foundation of generations before us, we have inadvertently become so focused on our own building that we have forgotten the foundation that holds it up;or in reaping for so long where we have not sown, perhaps we have forgotten the need to sow.This principle is also true, ultimately, in human behavior, in human relationships.They, too, are natural systems based on the The Law of the Harvest.In the short run, in an artificial social system such as school, you may be able to get by if you learn how to manipulate the man-made rules, to “play the game.” In most one-shot or short-lived human interactions, you can use the personality ethic to get by and to make favorable impreions through charm and skill and pretending to be interested in other people's hobbies.You can pick up quick, easy techniques that may work in short-term situations.But secondary traits alone have no permanent worth in long-term relationships.Eventually, if there isn't deep integrity and fundamental character strength, the challenges of life will cause true motives to surface and human relationship failure will replace short-term succe.Many people with secondary greatne--that is, social recognition for their talents--lack primary greatne or goodne in their character.Sooner or later, you'll see this in every long-term relationship they have, whether it is with a busine aociate, a spouse, a friend, or a teenage child going through an identity crisis.It is character that communicates most eloquently.As we have observed, the shift from the character ethic to the personality ethic has drawn us away from the very roots that nourish true succe and happine
It's a principle-centered, character-based, “Inside-Out” approach to personal and interpersonal effectivene.“Inside-Out” means to start first with self;even more fundamentally, to start with the most inside part of self--with your paradigms, your character, and your motives.If you want to have more freedom, more latitude in your job, be a more responsible, a more helpful, a more contributing employee.If you want to be trusted, be trustworthy.If you want the secondary greatne of recognized talent, focus first on primary greatne of character.The Inside-Out approach says that Private Victories TM precede Public Victories TM, that making and keeping promises to ourselves precedes making and keeping promises to others.It says it is futile to put personality ahead of character, to try to improve relationships with others before improving ourselves.As we sincerely seek to understand and integrate these principles into our lives, I am convinced we will discover and rediscover the truth of T.S.Eliot's observation:
We must not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we began and to know the place for the first time.
