5 Virtues

It is important we all do our best to improve ourselves and become better people. We can not be perfect, but I think we can be close to it. If Benjamin Franklin can do it than so can we! I will now list five virtues (though there are so much more I would like to appoint), I find these virtues very important and they are all qualities I love about people.
1. Stick to your goals and do not lose focus, like I always do.
2. Be nice to everyone and help others. We only have one life to live, so lets live it good. Be peaceful, helpful, and a good person to others.
3. Do not talk badly of others. Obviously we all have flaws, and when you sit there and judge someone else's flaws, you are technically being a hypocrite.
4. Do not be full of yourself and look down upon others. Yes, it is good to be confident and love yourself, but do not think you are better than everyone. If you are this way, just remember, no one likes you.
5. Probably one of the most important ones, do not do to others what you would not want to be done to yourself. This one is just beautiful and self explanatory. 
I try my best to follow all five of these, and in time I hope to try less and less, for all five of these virtues will become my natural qualities.
