Instinct is survival. Reason is for happiness but not personal happiness?

Doing good not moral if you get something out of it. Shouldnt be praised.
Self-happiness is a duty since it usually restricts happiness for others (but then all good acts
inherently help self?)
(If men desire happiness, or to spread happiness, then how can any act that gives happiness be
moral? Are all situations when mentally ill)
Being a loving person means nothing??

Must be done from duty, must have a reason of making others happy,
Cant respect any want or preference if mine? No, cant respect if its a consequence, only if its a
source, because then its not doing anything for them because they wont know whether or not it
will work, so its a good will on its own. Must always follow this even if it conflicts with desires.

Cant act on any way unless its a universal maxim. (So running red light, if a duty?)

Is it prudent to lie vs is it duty of false promise. Not about consequences of false promise but
about lie itself (but what makes lie bad? Its because then lying would be universal maxim and
there wouldnt be a point to lie because no one would take seriously, but isnt that
consequences?)
We want to not do duty and do what preferences want. Which is why common sense isnt always
smart.

Cant be sure from duty or something else (but I think point is to follow duty as a categorical
imperative. Its doing it for duty instead of doing it and getting respect from duty).

What ought to be done is follow duty (but is really what ought to be done something that cant or
at least never has been done?)
He argues that this is a priori, agreed.

All moral concepts: 1. Are a priori in reason, 2. Cant come from examples (empirical?), 3. Fact it
comes from reason is what makes it supreme, 4. Adding examples takes away, 5. This is
important for practical lives that it is pure
When will is constrained by principle= imperative= duty= when it is a categorical imperative

Any distinction for whether doing a categorical imperative is easy or hard? Guess not since not
empirical. Recylcing. Finding money?
