This month’s character trait is Discretion, which is defined as recognizing and avoiding words, actions, and attitudes that could bring undesirable consequences. Maintaining an attitude of discretion requires a person to approach each situation responsibly and consider the possible consequences. Once a word is spoken or a deed is done, it cannot be taken back. A discreet person takes personal responsibility to avoid creating lasting negative outcomes. This discretion begins with an attitude adjustment and the decision to weigh each factor and make decisions that honor others and reinforce a commitment to integrity. Whether thoughtless, humorous, malicious, or well-considered, words have a profound affect. If we will evaluate our words and actions, we will be able to make positive contributions.
