Hey Mind Warriors!
Need some important advice and guidance from you people today.

I'm starting a new business and have thought of following mission statement.
Need to write it in a better and bearutiful way.

Our Mission
We believe in Integrity
Attitude is our strongest weapon
Best quality and services to be provided
Provide distinctive competency.

    I think missions statements are more powerful when they are written in a simple powerful manner that even a child can understand. It sticks to the mind more easily that way.


    We believe in Integrity = Integrity is our identity
    Attitude is our strongest weapon = Attitude is the core of our strength
    Best quality and services to be provided = Strive to exceed expected quality
    Provide distinctive competency = Provide exceptional expertise

    The attitude part is nearly the same. I just tried to make the sentences clearer and directed more to the basic instinct.

    Those aren't mission statements, they are slogans/mottos at best. You can read some example mission statements here:

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

      YEs, you are correct. But can I still write them down under the heading "Our mission"? Because I can't put a complete and long mission statement where I want to show it.

    Dennis pulled out some good resources. I personally think displaying a "Guarantee" or "Customer Guarantee" if this is for the purpose of your customers as it much more effective as opposed to a mission though.

    I have only come across mission statements in job applications or in job interviews.

    We'll i guess it is always the best if you provide in your Mission you're real mission in an honest and sincerest way. A mission statement should be somewhat Unique, and not copy pasted.
