There are a lot of admirable ladies around, and you might be insecure with them because you think you could never be half as good as they are. However, always remember that no one is perfect, and everyone has her own share of flaws and goodness. If you want to be a good person, then you just have to improve your good side and strive to overcome the bad.To give you an idea of what you should work on yourself, here are the qualities that make you a good woman.More beautiful inside than out

Physical attractiveness is not everything. Instead of focusing on how you can be flawless and sexy, give more time to how you can control your temper, help other people, and be a good citizen in your community. Be someone who is a blessing to others by having a good character and a kind heart that encourages everyone. Secure and content. Insecurity brings out jealousy and envy in one person, and they will cause you to be bitter towards others. For this reason, instead of concentrating on what you lack, learn to appreciate who you are and be grateful for what you have. Celebrate yourself including your imperfections because they make you interestingly unique.Kindness is the language that everyone understands. Choose to show genuine kindness to the people around you by being generous with your smile and offering help whenever you can. Be polite and approachable as well, and do not be rude to anyone even if you feel upset or annoyed. True compassion moves. Meaning, instead of just feeling pity towards people in desperate situations, find out how you can help them. You can join a charity or organization which cares for people in need. You can also practice generosity and hospitality even through small things. A beautiful soul is someone who can be a shoulder to cry on for others. If you have friends who are going through some hard times, take the initiative to check on them and assure them that you are willing to listen. Be an encouragement to them even without saying anything. There are times when all people need to be okay is someone who will listen to them without judgments and accusations. A good person shows respect to all kinds of humans, whether young or old and rich or poor. Moreover, she honors those in authority above her, including her parents, senior citizens, government officials, and her supervisors.Diligent and responsible. With social media and smartphones conquering the world, procrastination is a leading opponent of productivity. Be a role model of how to be hardworking and responsible, whether in school or work. Beat laziness by being goal-oriented and strive for excellence in whatever you do.

One of the hardest character traits to achieve is humility. Be careful not to think highly of yourself, especially because of your achievements. Furthermore, be willing to admit mistakes and apologize for them. If someone corrects you, take it as constructive criticism and be thankful instead of being defensive.
