So,
1- Complimenting others on daily life. Smilling and accepting.
2- Listening to others and taking care of them
3- Charitable work (help people in difficulties or nature)
4- Being of service to others, in our jobs and activities.
5- Being of service to others, in our familiar or couple life (like doing laundry or dishes to other family members!)
6- Free time, spend it more in meditation or caring for others than our self-indulgence
I like to come up with jobs and professions, that are or can be really STO.
(Without harming nature)
These may include teachers, healers, surgeons, firemen, farmers, bakers, cleaning service, social service.
(But Hey! Apparently more self-activities like theatre or arts, are also important for our world beauty!)
This previous passage was really inspiring:

This previous passage was really inspiring:
Quote:1) work: we are all required to participate in the economy in some way. Even though there is an involuntary aspect to this, just by going to work and helping the economic wheels turn is a contribution
2) family: by promoting a caring and loving environment, those around us will suffer less. This is a very tangible and real example of service to others
3) free time: we have 2-3 hours each day which we can allot to whatever task we choose. We can choose a certain self-indulgence (of which activities you can imagine yourself) or one can engage in learning and self-healing, self-development. This spiritual unfolding enables one to be a greater vessel for service to others when the time comes
4) being a figure of solace: many times in life you will come across individuals in a difficult period of their lives. Quite often, all they really need is a welcoming ear, someone to hear them out, and not judge. This patient listener is a role we can all play. Those on the receiving end will be most thankful!
5) radiating kindness and goodwill: once we reform ourselves, we can become a living example of grace and ascension. By demonstrating the lessons of wisdom, others will take heart and perhaps look to change themselves. We can serve by being a leader in example.
