"Service Beyond Self is Essential for Success Because It - Builds credibility, trust, and customer satisfaction. Strengthens your personal reputation and public image. Fosters goodwill and makes people feel appreciated. Helps you build healthy relationships with others. Nurtures collaboration, participation, and cooperation. Reaffirms a continuity of service for quality assurance, integrity, and reliability. Saves money-it costs less to keep existing customers than it does to create new ones.

By providing other people with what they want, you will get more of what you want!"
