Character

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
- John Wooden

  1. I think this means that you need to care more about your character because thats what people are looking for from you.It says that people dont care about your reputation because it may be a lie.I think you should fix your character with people because they are really not looking for your reputation.I dont have a really good reputation but hey i got a good character.

  2. You character is more important than your reputation. What this means is that your character is based on your own personality and life. Reputation on the other hand is just what people want you to expect from you. It matters because people think about your reputation and you don't want to look bad. You ignore your character and without it what respect can you get.You think that what your expected to do comes first in reality character is the most important. It reflects your personality and people would like to know you better. So always be yourself and ignore the reputation.

  4. 1. his quote says that you shouldn't worry about your reputation because it is not as important as character.

    2. This quote means that your reputation isn't really important because it's just others people's perspectives of how you are. But, your character is way more important.

    3. This quote matters because people often worry about their reputation. But, they don't know that their reputation is not all that important. Their character is the most important because that is the way they really act. And, their rep. is basically just a way that someones perceives them as. It's all in the mind unless they actually know your character.

Your character is more important than a reputation.

  7. This is saying be more concerned with yourself than your reputation.

    This means that just because people like you for what you do don't mean you have to live every day by what people think of you. Life is what you make of it not what other people make of it.

    This matters because some people live their life based on what people think of them. They think that's the only way people are going to be your friend. I personally don't care what people think about me. That's why I don't make a lot of friends. They persuade you to do things they feel are going to make you happy. Not things that you feel or rather do.

  8. - Don't worry about what others think about you, it's about what you think of yourself.
    - This means that your reputation is nothing more than what people think and perceive you as. While your character is what you do and what you make of yourself.
    - This matters because I always think about what I've done in this world, and what people say about me. However, I never paid attention to the fact that it's just hatters with nothing to do. I can't be worried about what they think of me, all I can do is make sure that throughout it all they respect me, and not only KNOW me, but KNOW OF me!

  9. 1. This says that you need o be concerned of who you are and not who people perceive you to be or how people want you to act.
    2. This means that you need to make sure that you pay more attention to how you really are because the people that help build your reputation won't be there forever.
    3. This matters because you never know how life will work out if your always concerned about your reputation. You'll never know the real you because you're always worried about what people think. The reputation you have doesn't tell your future your personality does, because your personality will get you far. Another reason that your character or personality is more important because the more you impress people being you the further in lufe you can go.

  11. 1) this is saying that you should be more concerned in your character than what people think about you.
    2) this means your character and personalty is truly who you are. it is truly more important than what people think of you and your repitation.
    3) this matters alot for many reasons. this matters because often we focus on what people thinks of us and our reputation. that is not important. what is important is your character, how you act, you personalty, and who you truly are. if we focus on what is important instead of what other people think then we will be better of and more true to ourselves.

  12. 1. This quote says to be yourself and to not worry about your reputation because character is more important.
    2. This means that your reputation is not that important because its just what people think of you. It means to be yourself and not be someone you are not, because character is more important.
    3. This matters because people always think about their reputation because they don't want to look bad. People try to show off when it's not really them, everyone should just be their selves and show show their true self. Your Personality is more important then your reputation, not everything would come out as you expect it to be.

  14. 1) Its says that its better to care about your character than your reputation.
    2) It means that you have to care about your character. Not about your reputation because its all just what people think of you.
    3) It matters because a lot of people worry about how other people think about them but that shouldn't matter. Just be yourself and let people think whatever they just hating. I can apply this to my life by when ever anyone says something about me I can just take that and improve myself. Also just worry about me and not my reputation. Be the person I want to be not what others want me to be.

  15. 1)This says that you shouldn't care for your reputation because that's what others think about you.
    2)It means that you should care about your character because that shows what you really are.Also you shouldn't care about your reputation because you know how you are.
    3)This matters because you shouldn't care what other people say about you because they don't even know you.Also you should worry about other things that are really important. People make things about other people without knowing them.If you really care about reputation then you are just wasting your time.Your character shows what a type of person you are because their are things that you can't hide because that's the way you are.

  16. This says be concerned about your character.

    This means Dont worry about you reputation.You should be focused on your character.

    This matters because most people are concerned about what people think of them.I feel that everyone knows what you want them to see, As part of reputation.Your character is the true side of you,the real.
    "while your reputation is merely what others think you are." Your reputation is built off your traits.Characteristics can be like honesty, loyalty, and having integrity, or Rude, disrespectful, and ignorant. ii Guess
