I work hard to be a good person. Some days, I hit the mark. Other days, I fail miserably. There was, unfortunately, a long period in my life when I was a mean nasty person. Some of the things I have done, bother me now. I know I am still that mean, nasty person somewhere inside. However, now I actually stop and think about it. That is what I mean by working hard to be a good person. So, the answer really is: I don't consider myself to be a good person by nature. I do however, consider myself to be a good person by will.
