10. Serve

"Serving others is my path to liberation." Dalai Lama
Last night I had the opportunity to serve others. As Oprah once said, "we can all do more." Now, I'm not going to lie, I was tired. I awoke at 5 am, taught all day with no prep, came home and watched Oprah (of course! :) and wanted to take a little nap. But then I had to go back to school to serve Cokes and candy at the Spartan Express with two moms of boys tennis players, Kelly and Cheryl. It was so kind of them to come out on a Friday night, all of us would rather be home sitting on the couch, but this is our one fund raiser for the boys' tennis team. Oprah does great service all the time, by giving away great prizes to her audience. Also, when she established her leadership school in Africa, she is changing the lives of those young women. I believe we can all serve others in some small ways or big ways.

How do you serve others?
