QOTD: What is Character?

Last week, the New York Times published an article on two New York City schools’  attempt to teach character. The schools identified a list of strengths most likely to predict happiness and life achievement: zest, grit, self-control, social intelligence, gratitude, optimism and curiosity.

So, what do you believe constitutes “good character?” Bonus question: how does one build character?
