Magnificent!
I enjoy thinking about the power a single word can have - it's value when applied to everyday life.
A few favorites: Excellence (as in a concept to achieve) Respect (as in something to offer) Honor (as in something to offer) (and my latest) Magnificent (as in a standard to achieve) What are some of yours?

Mercenary is a word that carries value and I find useful at times to convey a particular vibe.
Such as "That's a mercenary approach but sometimes that's what it takes."

Phylotimo.
"Philotimo (also spelled filotimo; Greek: φιλότιμο) is a Greek noun translating to "love of honor". However, philotimo is almost impossible to translate sufficiently as it describes a complex array of virtues." Philotimo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I like magnificent........ Many years ago I worked with an older gentleman that used that word. He often said " I had an erection a week ago Tuesday, it was magnificent "!
