VIRTUE THEORY   Aristotle, an early Greek Thinker proposed one of the most influential theories of Ethics Called Virtue Theory.According to this theory “virtues” or “morally good habits” develop only through training and repetition.

Just as individuals develop other kinds of practical abilities through practice and repetition, so also he argued humans acquire their moral ability when they are taught and habituated by their families and communities to think feel, and behave in morally appropriate ways.

Why be moral. What a human being should be Why be moral? What a human being should be. We all have reason to support good practice since we all want our lives to go well - our own lives - but this is not necessarily a selfish want - typically, we see our own lives as going well only if lives of our close friends parents, children and other group members go well.

The moral virtues are just those traits of character we need in order to have best chance of making our lives go well. Virtues relate to fundamental universal facts about human nature and conditions of living tolerably, they are of critical importance for all people everywhere.  

Courage, Temperance, Generosity, Self-control, Honesty, Sociability, Modesty, and Fairness or Justice are all virtues   He claims that much more attention must be paid to people’s character .
