Character is defined as the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual. Character refers to our individual beliefs and values—both of which shape our personalities. Our life experiences also shape our characters and reveal our important and basic qualities and morals.

Personality refers to our thinking, feeling and behaviors. Our personality shapes our character and interpersonal interactions often help us realize someone’s personality traits.

According to Sigmund Freud, human personality is composed of three elements known as the id, the ego, and the superego. These elements work together to create complex human behaviors.
