Not to hijack the thread, but what do you consider high standards, morals and ethics? The standards, morals and ethics of society as a whole, or your own private morals, ethics and standards, which may or may not agree with or be acceptable to society as a whole? And as to compromise, don't you think that we all need to compromise, at certain points, just to be able to get along in the world? Or did you really mean to say, "avoid lowering your standards"?

We now return you to the tangled skein which this thread has become...
First you have to establish a set of standards/morals/ethics, that will seperate you from most people.

Compromise relates to after you have established your parameters and a willingness to stick to them.
