Be careful not to get so caught up in helping others achieve their goals that your goals become neglected.
Being useful to others is an important skill to have.
Helping others get what they want is part of being a well-rounded human being.
Service is an essential aspect of community, and especially of leadership.
To focus so much on service that your own goals go unfulfilled is counter-productive, however.
Your dreams and your purpose need your attention also.
No one is going to go out of their way to tend to your goals for you.
You need to put in the effort and you need to do the work.
If the people around you truly care about you, they will support you in this.
What’s more, if they are the right people, they will even help you.
