Another aspect of The25Virtues book will be a description of vices that people struggle with and how they match up to Virtues. I created a list of nearly 100 vices that I have linked specifically to one or more of The25Virtues. When the book is complete and all of this work is done, you will be able to look up a vice that you are struggling with and be referred to the appopropriate Virtue.
Here is a (very small) sample of the list so far just to present the basic idea:
Vice Virtue(s)
Agitation Patience, Peace, Restraint
Apathy Perseverance
Arrogance Humility
Distrust Faith
Hate Compassion, Love
The list is quite large, and I am still working on boiling it down to a useful format. In essense, it is my beleif that we all struggle with these vices. If we are able to connect our current challenge to the universal ethics of The25Virtues, we can change behavior.
