The Beauty, and Power, of Service

Life’s most urgent question is: What are you doing for others? – Martin Luther King, Jr.

Service is the key to living well.

When you live to serve, in an authentic, healthy way, you create allies, friends, advocates and champions everywhere you go and in everything you do.

What’s more, by serving you reinforce – internally, most importantly – that the world is safe and abundant because service can only come such a place.

The opposite is some variation of scarcity, coldness and turning inward.

That’s not how human kind works.

Service is.
