"WHAT ARE THE STEPS YOU CAN TAKE?"

• Ethics
  • Selfishness vs Altruism
  • Egoism vs egotism

What is the moral standard for man? Volitional acts that objectively benefit conscious indviduals and their societies through competitive value production are good -ethical, moral.  By contrast, volitional acts that objectively harm conscisous individuals and their societies through initiatiory force, dishonesty, and fraud are bad - unethical, immoral.

Since man is volitional, he must uphold personal responsibility in 
order to survive.

This puts certain requirements on his actions.

for long-term survival he must satisfy certain psychological needs, 
which include self-esteem

Thus value creation is moral, value destruction is immoral
