I believe that sometimes life gives you lessons by having circumstances that compel a reoccurring thought. As of late, the theme of focusing on the service of others seem to pop up a lot. It’s in the things that happen to me, but also in the things I’ve been watching too. My favorite quote is from Chris Do, a very successful designer. He said, “I try to give as much as I can to others without hurting myself.” It’s actually one of his secrets to success. The fact that he helped so many people eventually helped his budding business thrive. All due to the favors he did for others and the connections he made. While this concept isn’t completely new to me, I do hope to embed it more in my thought process, speech, and actions. And above all, in my intentions. I hope it becomes instinctual when I ask others how I could be of service to them. I hope to embody generosity in its full capacity. I hope to embrace selflessness as a daily act.
