Four Things

that are the characteristics of a great person - quality, care, meticulousness, exactitude. How does one get these attributes? Do they come naturally? What motivates a person to have/develop these attributes? Is it just a habit? Or a conscious decision to have it?

If it is just a habit, then how do those who don't have those habits start to inculcate them? What motivates them to cultivate those habits? What is that intrinsic motivational factor that keeps the spirit/soul kindled? How does one go about start answering the question?

So, for the nth time I have asked. :-) I have been leading an unconscious life for quite sometime in my life. Then suddenly, not sure when, I have become conscious. Then all the past seemed like a nightmare to me. Some amount (or rather a significant amount) of damage has already been happened. A great amount of effort has to be put in to overcome this past state and establish a healthy state. For that one should not worry. One should keep the mind relatively peaceful. One has to be at peace with oneself. Ditching old habits take time.
