How does character lead to productivity? First, as we have seen, character is itself at the heart of what God requires and is the essence of the productive life. The greatest success is to be a person of character — someone who walks with God, in Christ, and seeks to live this out every day by doing justice and loving mercy (Mic. 6:8). Second, character leads to making the most of our time in the decisions of everyday life because character is actually the source of our ability to determine what’s best next.
