In this episode we discovered that developing the skill and strength to handle ad hominems when they are directed toward you requires the ability to recognize and avoid ad hominems, and hardest of all, to resist retaliation. The suggestions you'll find in the downloadable
Crosswalk guide will involve character traits like
diligence to learn,
humility to absorb ad hominems, and
courage to resist retaliation.
I've spent years developing a program called
"Ways to Improve Your Character...and Everything Else" made up of modules that focus on each of twelve fundamental character traits individually. You can learn about that program by clicking on the program title above. Or you can jump straight to learning about the individual modules for diligence, humility, and courage by scrolling down this page and checking the explanatory videos for each.
