Benjamin Franklin aimed for moral perfection by identifying 13 virtues to cultivate, such as temperance, silence, and order. However, he struggled to consistently adhere to these principles, often finding himself distracted by human flaws and temptations. His self-imposed system of tracking his progress revealed that while he made efforts to improve, he never fully achieved the ideal of moral perfection he sought. Ultimately, Franklin recognized that striving for perfection was more valuable than the perfection itself, as it fostered personal growth and self-awareness.
Moral perfection is outlined in the writing contained in his Autobiography, in which Franklin seeks to attain his own moral perfection by mastering the thirteen virtues he deemed most prudent and important. These virtues include temperance, industry, and chastity. More information on the thirteen virtues and achieving Franklin's moral perfection can be found in the related links.
