BEHAVIOR
A man's true personality, make up, and image is revealed in his behavior, like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe puts it, "Behavior is the mirror in which everyone shows their image". What a man has, or lacks is revealed in how he responds to issues and circumstances around him, in thoughts, words, and action.
In the words of the great ancient Greek Philosopher, Plato, "Human behavior flows from three main sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge". What you want, the things you desire affects your behavior. Your behavior is tailored and directed towards the achievement of your desire. So, whatever you have to do to achieve what you want determines your behavior.
Your emotions also have a say in how you behave, hurt and pain, pleasure and enjoyment exudes differing behaviors, it determines our response and gives us a direction to follow, and a path to thread. Knowledge is the most important source of behavior, what a man knows has the greatest degree of influence on his behavior. That is why the acquisition of good knowledge must be prioritized, so we can develop good behaviors.
Whatever you do, let your behavior be that which is enviable, and worthy of emulation. Associate with people of good, or even better behavior than yourself, seek to always be better in all ways, by all means, work on the bad behaviors, and turn them right, your BEHAVIOR is one of the major determinants of what and who you will become, make it good.
