Legendary entrepreneur Warren Buffet says: “Trust is like the air we breathe. When it’s present, nobody really notices. But when it’s absent, everybody notices.” You can run your business from startup to retirement on ethical principles. Now is when you must put the right things in place to build an ethical corporate culture: mission, values, clear and accessible policies and processes, corporate citizenship and philanthropy. The first step is to be a model of ethical behavior yourself. If your employees see you cutting corners and consistently working in gray areas, then they are probably going to do the same thing regardless of what your code of ethics says. It’s a monkey-see, monkey-do world we live in.

6. Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.
Psychological health and well-being should not be confused with the question of whether or not you suffer from mental or emotional disorder. The research on well-being concerns itself with the feelings of normal individuals, or subjects from the general population. When we talk about psychological health, we are referring to how ordinary people are doing in life. In other words, if you are feeling distressed, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you are mentally ill. Psychological health concerns itself with how you cope, how you are doing in response and whether you find life to be interesting and enjoyable.
Answer: 心理健康不应该因为你是否受到精神或情绪紊乱而感到困惑。关于健康问题的研究涉及正常人个体或者普通大众的感受。当我们说到心理健康，我们指的是普通人在生活中的所作所为。换句话说，如果你觉得压抑，这并不意味着你就有心理问题。心理健康涉及你怎样处理事情，你又怎样反应而且还涉及你是否觉得你的生活是有趣而享受的。
