Overview   

Ethics is knowing the difference between what one has a right to do and what is right to do. BUT first one needs to know one's self first!  

Let us take a step back from the technical jargon and issues of ethics and look at the bigger picture.  Before we can start understanding our professional and business ethics, it is important to take a pulse check with ourselves and become aware of where we stand as individuals.  After all the individual makes up the collective of the profession.
