Think of the new vocabulary that would emerge if the world embraced an attitude of service and generosity of the heart, rather than work! When you perform that which has been given you to do with an attitude of work, you are actually in servitude to that work. You are a servant to your own burdensome false idea. Service, on the other hand, is freedom.
Dr. Michael Beckwith
Service at its very basic core is an inner choice to offer a helpful and healing attitude to others as well as to ourselves. . . .
Service is best thought of as a continual focus in your life rather than being limited to certain kinds of giving activities and the sharing in relationships. Service is a state of mind that expresses love rather than fear, and trust rather than distrust. It is focusing on meeting all others as equals with whom we share a spiritual identity. This inner attitude of love reveals itself in action.
Wayne W. Dyer
The frontiers are not east or west, north or south, but wherever a man “fronts” a fact.
