The motto reminds a Scout of the meaning and purpose of his mem(ership and the training he gets from Scouting. A Scout is (eing prepared and trained for responsi(le citi2enship and ser&ant leadership. As he reJuires the necessary $no!ledge and s$ills in Scouting* his mind is conditioned and he is a(le to oHer the same $no!ledge and s$ills not only for himself (ut in the ser&ice of others.
