SERVICE & SUCCESS
Exceptional service is the hallmark of any exceptional endeavour.
Service always precedes success...even in the dictionary.
"I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve."
-- Dr. Albert Schweitzer
"Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time."

"Success is most naturally achieved by giving freely of yourself, without expecting anything in return
-- Author unknown
"Success in school or life comes from immersion in what you are doing, not from making or dreaming of money."
-- Chinese Analects (Confucius)
"No one ever attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him; it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required, that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction."
-- Charles Kendall Adams
"Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace...a soul generated by love."
-- Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Don't complain about what you don't have. Use what you've got. To do less than your best is a sin. Every single one of us has the power for greatness, because greatness is determined by service -- to yourself and to others."
-- Oprah Winfrey
"Success is measured not by what you do for yourself, but what you do for another person's self-interest
-- Diane Hughes
"The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action."

"It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself."
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"You can have anything you want in life if you will help enough other people get what they want."
-- Zig Ziglar
"The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does."
-- Napoleon Hill
"A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large."
-- Henry Ford
