the idea that the mastery of one virtue facilitates the next.
Franklin lists virtue in a specific order to reflect a logical progression in personal development. Each virtue builds on the previous one, starting with temperance, which lays the foundation for self-control and discipline. This structured approach emphasizes the importance of mastering one virtue before moving on to the next, creating a cohesive framework for personal growth and moral improvement. By organizing the virtues in this way, Franklin highlights the interconnectedness of ethical behavior and the cumulative nature of developing a virtuous character.
Franklin began his moral perfection with the virtue of temperance because he believed it was the most challenging for him and would serve as a good foundation for mastering self-discipline in other areas. It was also a practical choice as temperance in eating and drinking was a common virtue at the time and would have a positive impact on his health and well-being.
