Moral Virtue Aquired

How is lesson virtue acquired? Alex Koglman Aristotle believes ethics is to the highest degree moral virtue over intellectual virtue. Moral virtue come afters about as a result of habits of human excellence. So in that case nothing that exists by nature suffer form a habit. For example, when a bunny is born it does not learn to hop it is born to hop. With that being said us humans should try and mature good habits from the beginning of life. By developing good habits this will help you do the right thing without having to think hard about what the outcome is overtaking to be.Good behavior arises from habits which in return provide only be acquired by repeating the action and correcting it. First, moral virtues that help construct up a dexterous human are justice, wisdom, courage and temperance. Wisdom is a special virtue that is intellectual however it does guide human choices, while moral virtues are about action. Moral virtues are not acquired by teaching they are brought on by acting the same way over and over again until it is habitual.So how do people acquire these moral virtues? The best conclusion would be, if a person had parents that acted in this way and were role models of excellence. Otherwise, success only comes from years of practicing, making severe decisions, and learning from your mistakes. Next, how will someone know when they acquire these moral virtues? The persons peers will look up to them and constantly have positive outcomes. People will come to them for help/advice, have 100% faith in them and be a huge role model.In result that person will feel like a million dollars knowing that he/she is in control. Aristotle provides people with both amazing insight and a powerful plan to shape ones choices and actions in ways that will increase the chance of attaining happiness. By developing the four cardinal virtues, a person can go very far lot the path of a whole life, well lived and the rest is up to good fortune. But even if bad lu ck ruins the chance, a person of good character, by possessing the moral virtues, will be far better off than those who dont.Aristotle concludes that it is not possible to achieve happiness, a whole life well lived, without moral virtue. Moral virtue is a necessity for happiness otherwise people will act out of spite/anger/revenge/unlawful. Acting virtuously, however, is the native means to becoming virtuous. For, according to Aristotle, virtues arise in us neither by nature nor contrary to nature but by our nature we can receive them and perfect them by habituation
