Service Above Self. This is a moto that I learnt from being the Secretary of Interact Club in Secondary 4. This is a great moto that give our club a vision to get out of our comfort zone to help the less fortunate. It helped the memebers to put in their heart to carry out charity tasks.
I have not really paid attention to this line until recently when helped out in the logistics in Money & You. I discovered that the moto gave me more energy, strength and enthusiasm to help the participants.
In this last few days I had decided to adopt this moto to my work and future works. So far so good. It had given me joy and satisfaction with what I do. At the minimum, it kick my lazy bum and contribute my knowledge to my friends. I started going the extra mile to meet, listening and exchange knowledge with them, which I am usually passive about.
I had spent my time with a friend who needed emotional support and I know with this moto and intention, I will not fail to help her. In fact I believed that I had somewhat lifted her spirit because when I met her to show her The Secret today, she actually take action on my advise I gave yesterday! It feels very good.
Previously in my engineering job, I had adopted the attitude of learning. "Learning" was my moto,therefore my outcome is that I learnt alot but was not satisfied with my own performance. I also feel a lack in myself in terms of leadership because more than often I do not get things done my way (like a student learning, the teacher always have the last say...), so the architects, supervisors and contractors get things done their way, and I felt the quality could be better. I was a whimp heh..But things are changing with my decision and improvement daily!!!
So what is your moto or mission statement?
