A categorical imperative is an absolute and a universal moral obligation. In the ethical system of Immanuel Kent, an unconditional moral is law that applies to rational beings and is independent of any personal motive or desire. It is also the moral principal that behavior should be determined buy duty. This is very similar to the term teleological which means that a person is goal or ends-orientated. Categorical imperative is also goals or end orientated.
             An example of categorical imperative is always acting in such a way that the maxim of your action can be willed as a universal law of humanity. This relates back to Teleology because teleology tells us that our behavior has consequences and that we should be concerned, not simple whether or not our behavior is right by some standard, but also what the outcome will be. Moral principals must be categorical. Categorical imperatives must apply to one without regard to any of one's motives but this interpretation would be mistaken. Kant believes that a categorical imperative might depend "for its validity" or applicability motivating ends. This again goes back to the term teleological which is grounded in the notion that what is good is determined by what produces the greatest good for the greatest number of people regardless of how the end is achieved. An example is an act is evaluated by its consequences. The theory of the categorical imperative is moreover, inconsistent and according to human nature, it is the highest lawgiving authority. This is because of our human instinct, a person will usually help someone in need or if they see a car accident, people will usually stop to help or find help not knowing what the outcome will be. It is just natural judgment.
