The concept of “character” is translated from Greek as the presence of a sign or feature. It is closely related to human temperament. And if temperament, according to psychologists, is laid in the womb and can not be adjusted, but the character can be changed. And in some cases it’s even necessary. If you feel insecure, it’s hard for you to make a decision, it’s more difficult to overcome difficulties, you need to urgently start working on yourself.
