**HOW TO DECIDE** **WHAT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO** Some decisions you make aren't very important. For example, you might decide to have chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla. But other decisions may involve a choice between right and wrong, and sometimes it's not easy to know what to do. Whenever you aren't sure what's the right thing to do, stop and think! **Ask yourself these questions:** >>> What does my conscience—that "little voice" inside my head—say about it? >>> Could it hurt anyone—including me? >>> Is it fair? >>> Would it violate the Golden Rule? (How would I feel if somebody did it to me?) >>> Have I ever been told that it's wrong? >>> Deep down how do I feel about it? >>> How will I feel about myself later if I do it? >>> What would adults I respect say about it? If you still can't decide, talk it over with someone you trust and respect.


 * Josephson’s Institute of Ethics outlines what they call the Six Pillars of Character.**
 * 1. Trustworthiness** - Be honest. Don’t deceive, cheat or steal. Be reliable - do what you say you’ll do. Be loyal.
 * 2. Respect** - Treat others with respect. Be tolerant of differences. Use good manners, not bad language.
 * 3. Responsibility** - Do what you are supposed to do. Use self-control. Be self-disciplined and accountable for your choices.
 * 4. Fairness** - Play by the rules. Take turns and share. Be open-minded. Don’t take advantage of others.
 * 5. Caring** - Be kind. Be compassionate. Express gratitude. Forgive others. Help people in need.
 * 6. Citizenship** - Do your share. Stay informed; vote. Be a good neighbor. Obey laws and rules. Respect authority. Protect the environment.
