Will give my take at it. There is no thing as "a good act" or "a bad act" because these are absolutes. What I _believe_ true is "to act good/bad to". Because they are relative to the recipient(s)[anything sentient/alive/other term] of the act to say so. So as a baseline rule, considering myself a "good" person, I try to follow the known (and even religious) saying of: treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
