What is Ethics?

Ethics

Dicitonary.com

“a complex of moral precepts held or rules of conduct followed by an individual: a personal ethic.”

To me ethics are just as dictionary.com states. They are moral precepts held or a rule of conduct followed by an individual. To other people ethics may have a different definition but to them I say this; if ethics supposedly is in your definition is the word that some call “swag”, why?

Ethics are vital to the success of the world as we know it. If none of us have principles that we follow to become what we dream to be, the world and it inhabitants would crumble. It’s the only ways we can make a decision that will be not only help ourselves, but the world. With Ethics comes a philosophy that we need to help make those important decisions that will help us pursue our dreams. Any flaw in ethics within ourselves, will reduce our chances to be successful in our endeavors.
