Question of the Day

[ayoub]

What drives you to do the right thing, even when it's the hardest thing to do?

my conscience (is that how you spell it?)

[katamphigorical.livejournal.com]

Selflessness. Of which i'm always on very short supply.

[avis-noctis.livejournal.com]

The knowledge that I will regret it later if I don't.

[bronxelf-ag001.livejournal.com]

Self interest.

[childeofloki.livejournal.com]

Honour.

Well, that depends on what the 'right thing' is under the circumstances. Mostly, I do what I *think* is best for all concerned - especially in circumstances where there is no definite right or wrong thing to do.

The fact that I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I didn't...

[beatzz.livejournal.com]

Knowing that I'll be able to sleep easy...

I can't when I do something selfish or malicious.

My conscience is a Nazi specifically trained in torture...

[avis-noctis.livejournal.com]

I can't when I do something selfish or malicious.

Me neither.

Ditto.

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

Knowing I have to live with myself and the outcome of my choices.

:D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Heh... And you still do the right thing? :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

That's a good motivator...

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

That works :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yup :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yes... :D

[cmerun12.livejournal.com]

I'm a selfish bitch like that, and I know it.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

"the right thing" always depends on circumstances :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yes... Me too... :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

A conscience like that is a good thing :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Indeed :D

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

Ethics=what helps to guide you when no one is watching. :)

[chanphenglew.livejournal.com]

The worry that other people will suffer if I don't do the right thing.

Well depends on the *right thing* we're talking about. I usually do the right thing because it is the right thing to do.

However, the *right thing* in my instance about the instructor issue is the *right thing* to do, even if I do not win the appeal because other students might benefit from said action.
