A zealous and careful nature in one's actions and work. Decisive work ethic. Acting energetically without excessive reflection. [http://carol365.blogspot.com/2007/03/66-virtue-of-diligence_07.html]</ref>
"Diligence is one of the seven capital virtues. The others are [[humility]], [[liberality]], [[brotherly love]], [[meekness]], [[chastity]], and [[temperance]]. They are called capital because all the virtues we strive to practice are said to flow from these seven capital virtues."<ref> [http://www.secondexodus.com/html/catholicdefinitions/diligence.htm Second Exodus] Martin K. Barrack</ref>
 
It means a careful and persistent work or effort.
