Virtue Ethics was devised by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle.

Virtue Ethics focuses on the agent being a good person rather than just doing good acts. It emphasizes character over rules and consequences.

Aristotle believed that all humans have a rational soul, which is unique and allows us to perform actions that are unique to humans.

Habit refers to a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up. In the context of Virtue Ethics, virtues are habits that we acquire, which are good characteristics or traits.

Aristotle identified four cardinal virtues that lead to a good life: Prudence (wisdom), Justice, Courage, and Temperance (self-control).

Virtue Ethics benefits society as well as individuals by promoting moral character and virtuous behavior. It encourages individuals to strive for excellence and virtue, which in turn leads to a more ethical and harmonious society.

The Golden Mean is a concept from Aristotle's Virtue Ethics. It refers to the desirable middle between two extremes, one of excess and the other of deficiency. For example, courage is the golden mean between recklessness and cowardice.

According to Virtue Ethics, people's actions will ultimately be motivated by their desire to achieve eudaimonia, a Greek word often translated as 'flourishing' or 'the good life'. This involves living in accordance with virtue and reason.
