Why the EIGHTFOLD PATH start with the word RIGHT?

  Anyone can do good things, but just doing it well is not enough. There is a saying that says “It is not always good to be good”. The eightfold path always start with word right this is because Buddha wanted us to do things not just good but in a right way, he wants us to view things positively and accordingly. For me, doing the right thing will lead you to the right path, doing right thing will enlighten our lives and made us to realized the true meaning of our lives. But ironically people always ask which is right? How can we distinguish right from wrong? For me it will always be dependent on the situation and with our understanding.
