Inspiring Yourself
Five Tips for Volunteers
Sathish Vaidyanathan
Have Trust in the Purpose
Unsullied belief in the purpose and a good understanding of the goals result in focus, creativity and efficiency
Practice Humility
Believe that your contribution is unique; feel proud of the service you do; but more importantly deflect your ego away and keep aiming for something better
The learning is yours, not the result
Put in the best of your efforts, observe and cherish the learnings you gain. Claim not to the outcome, for it’s not yours
Avoid Emotions
Be sensitive to the purpose, but don’t let emotions stomp the spirit of volunteerism
Power of Two
Re-energize your battery. Aim for 2 hours of volunteering every week
