“Character is simply habit long continued.”
— Plutarch

Simplified Meaning:
Our daily routines and the things we do over and over shape who we are as people. Just like how a student who studies every night becomes knowledgeable over time, the small choices we make every day slowly form our character. If someone consistently helps others, they will be seen as a kind person. On the other hand, if someone lies often, they will be seen as dishonest. It's the repeated actions, good or bad, that define our traits. By being aware of our habits and making positive choices, we can improve our character and how others see us. This means we should cultivate good habits to become the best version of ourselves.
