The Importance of Ethics and Its Teachings by the Ancients
One of the first things that I thought was important to start my new blog, was to write an article on Ethics, and why its important to make it a part of our lives. But a lot of people asks, "What is ethics exactly?" We hear about it. We learnt it in school, though we may not have completely caught on. But what exactly is it?
One of the standards of definitions, is the study of standards of behavior which promotes human welfare and the good.-Kirk O. Hanson, executive director of the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University. Though this definition seems simplified by university professors, its still a complex explanation. To put it more simply, it's the group of habits that we practice and develop for ourselves to achieve our goals, meet needs, or satisfy our demands.
Ethics is what we groom ourselves to become. We all have goals in life. At the same time, life has its problems. How do we prevail and overcome? How do we find the victory we know is meant for us? They are within us. Socrates(469 BC - 399 BC), Once said that self-knowledge was considered necessary for success and inherently an essential good. Ethics is the importance of gaining self-awareness and good habits to act, react, and interact with every situation to bring about the best fortunes and benifits for us. In other words, how we structure our networks around us, and the habits we practice can determine our good fortune and well-being for ourselves and others.
Even in the field of eCommerce, sitting in front of a computer is no exception. The role of ethics is very important, because the relationship with our companies and customer is very important. we must remember any business is for a mutual advantage.
