How and why is service learning "NOT" important to self-leadership?

My college professor is requiring our class to create a five-page paper on the above question, however as far as I know (and believe), service learning is an important part of self-leadership, at least somewhat.

So, if anyone could please help me out at least a little with the question at hand, it would be of great help. I’m not here looking for others to do my work, but just to open my eyes to see what my professor is trying to get from me with this paper. Thank you all, very much!
