For this post, think about your future career (or the field that you hope to work in after you complete your studies). ( I want to be Occupational Therapist and work in the hospital or clinic) What virtue do you think is most important for the practice of your profession? What goods or values does the consistent employment of this virtue produce?
Provide a general description of your virtue. What does it mean to possess this virtue? Think along the following lines: people who have virtue X tend to exhibit certain characteristics (or do certain things) in certain kinds of situations. Try to think of these situations in terms of what is common and important to your profession or practice.
After you have a clear understanding of your virtue, identify the corresponding vices (both the excess and the deficiency). Label your vices as characteristics, not actions (give the word for your vice, as opposed to mere example). What characterizes the points of excess and defect between which your virtue as the mean lies?
What obstacles arise that prevent professionals from practicing your virtue? Do well-meaning professionals lack power or technical skill? Can virtues interfere with the realization of non-moral values (like financial values)? See if you can think of a supporting scenario or case here.
Next, identify a moral exemplar (a role model who exemplifies this virtue – real or fictional) for your virtue.
Finally, does your virtue stand alone or does it need support from other virtues or skills? For example, integrity might also require moral courage.
Please address each of these sections in your post.
