Greek Ethics
Socrates, a secular prophet
whose self-appointed purpose
was to make his fellow men
aware of the need for reasoned
examination of their beliefs and
behaviors, first appeared in the
fifth century BCE, marking the
beginning of ethical philosophy.

daily life
Not descriptive, but prescriptive, is ethics.
Ethics tells us what we should do rather
than what we already do. We should be
kind, compassionate, respectful, and so on
toward others. In other words, an ethical
person practices incorporating their moral
principles and personal qualities into their
daily decisions. The morally upright
qualities that shape our ethical nature are
known as virtues. Virtue is founded on
integrity.
Some fundamental concepts of respect
are important to grasp in order to apply
ethics in daily life. Whether when you have
concern for your neighbor or fellow
concerned citizen, you already gives some
direction you should respect. If you are
aware that the person is experiencing
tough living conditions, try to show some Ethics:

TRUSTWORTHINESS
People trust us more when they believe
we can fulfill our tasks without their
supervision, so they allow us more
latitude. They value us more highly and
have faith in us. That makes me happy. At
the same time, we must continuously live
up to others' expectations and avoid lying
or acting selfishly, which may swiftly sour
our relationships. It is insufficient to
merely avoid deceit.

wide range of traits includes:

RESPECT
Everyone has the right to be treated
with dignity since people are not stuff.
Despite the fact that we are not
ethically required to hold everyone in
high regard, everyone deserves respect
regardless of who they are or what
they have done. Even when interacting
with disagreeable individuals, we are
accountable for always giving our best
effort. The Golden Rule, which states,
"Treat people as you would like them to
treat you," is a great example of the
respect pillar. Respect for others
forbids manipulation, exploitation,
humiliation, and violence.

FAIRNESS
Fairness – what is it? It involves
issues of fairness, objectivity,
proportionality, transparency, and
due process, most people would
agree. Most people would concur
issues indifferently. Most people
would concur that it is unfair to
impose a penalty that is not
appropriate for the offense.
Although the fundamental idea
appears straightforward and even
obvious, putting it into practice in
daily life can be surprisingly
challenging. As with other thorny
ethical concepts, fairness is also
open to valid discussion and
interpretation. Parties at odds
frequently insist there is only one
legitimate viewpoint (their own,
naturally). But in essence, fairness
entails abiding by a just standard
that is balanced and unaffected by
one's own emotions or preferences.
