2 ideas for building your character:

Be known as a promise-keeper
Do what you say you will do. No matter how small the promise is, no matter to whom the promise is made, strive to keep your word. If events prevent you from honoring the commitment you made, get back to people to let them know why you cannot fulfill your promise. Resolve to handle your word as precious currency and watch how your value rises in everyone’s eyes.

Be consistent in your dealings with others
Do you treat some people better than you treat others? For example, do you unwittingly complain about a member of your team to other team members? While we can easily slip into such behavior, especially when we are tired and frustrated by the day’s events, consider that this chips away at your integrity and character.
