Pleasures of narcissism

For an upcoming review I have been working on a "personal statement" articulating my achievements and aspirations in teaching, scholarship and "service." I'm trying to show that these things naturally affect and enrich each other - something often said about teaching and scholarship but less commonly about these and supposedly boring things like curriculum development. It's sort of fun, at least in part because in my case it's sort of true.
