Are you an ethical person?

I came across an interesting article that brings up the point of whether or not you're an ethical person. This article came out not long after the Enron collapse, as we all saw how many unethical decisions were the cause of that crash. So start out by asking yourself what do you value in life? Do you value honesty, respect and hard work? Or do you focus more on harmony, balance and mutuality? Everyones values differ and one can't argue that one has wrong values, because we all look at situations differently. So how do you know if you actually promote your values through out life? Take a minute to sit down and think about how you use your values in everyday life, whether it's at home, work, school or even just by yourself. For some, this can be a very difficult task because though many of us may think we have values, do we actually have principles for those values?

Today, ethics are a large part of our society, especially with the advancements of technology. Technology has given us the options to cheat our way out of things and very easily hurt others. Technology has also given us the ability to respond to situations as quickly as 30 seconds after the incident occurred. We are able to see how technology has changed the way the media works through social media such as Twitter and Facebook, because of these advancements we face ethical decisions every day. So I hope everyone will sit down and think about what values they represent and how they display those values.
