What's An Ethic?

We all have an inner voice that tells us right from wrong. All of us, except sociopaths, are guided daily by this inner voice. We get ourselves into trouble when we hear the voice and choose to ignore it. We must trust the inner voice without questioning it.

My experience of being on the wrong side of the law did not make me an expert on fraudulent behavior, ethics, business or sales. It was my experiences after I suffered the consequences and the humility I gained that helped me discover what works and what doesn’t in business.

Ethics is a set of principals of right conduct. Who decides what right conduct is? Usually, a company or a professional association gets to determine what they consider appropriate behavior. In the past, I had some trouble with ethics. It was something I had never thought about. I have now had time to ponder, and I believe I now understand the issue.
