THOUGHT FOR YOUR WEEK
Enthusiasm a Key to Success
By Catherine Pulsifer
 
If you approach any task without enthusiasm, the task will be laborious. With enthusiasm, any task becomes so much easier.
 
Enthusiasm can be contagious. When you work with enthusiastic people, you can't help but be enthusiastic yourself. Enthusiasm spreads like wild fire. Think of people you have worked with. Usually, those who show enthusiasm are fun to work with. And, those who have little enthusiasm usually bring you down.
 
I have a post-card on my desk taken from "Life's Little Instruction Book" that says: "Be the most enthusiastic and positive person you know!" When I am having a difficult day, I read that card, and it encourages me to change my outlook.
 
Much has been written about enthusiasm, consider the words of Samuel Smiles,  "Enthusiasm...the sustaining power of all great action."  And the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson who said, "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm."  And Vince Lombardi whose words may make you smile, but there is true wisdom in them,  "If you are not fired with enthusiasm, you will be fired with enthusiasm."
 
How enthusiastic are you?

QUOTES for YOUR WEEK:
"We act though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about."
Charles Kingsley
 
"Every man is enthusiastic at times. One man has enthusiasm for thirty minutes - another for thirty days, but it is the man who has it for thirty years who makes a success of his life."
Edward B. Butler
 
"Flaming enthusiasm, backed by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success."
Dale Carnegie
 
"Age may wrinkle the face, but lack of enthusiasm wrinkles the soul."
Danish Proverb
 
"You can do anything if you have enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes rise to the stars. With it, there is accomplishment. Without it there are only alibis."
Henry Ford
 
"The great accomplishments of man have resulted from the transmission of ideas and enthusiasm."
Thomas J. Watson, Sr

POEM FOR YOUR WEEK
The Workings of a Successful Mind
by: Devin McMillan, © (2010)
 
The powers of the mind are not fixed
and science can never explain
What makes a person a success
yet leaves another so mundane
For whatever the mind can conceive
with enough thought it will deliver
There is no goal too extreme
when your mind is a benevolent giver
Take risks in your daily life
or you can conform like the rest
Since rewards are only granted to
those who have passed this test
Know that you have the power
to succeed in numerous ways
Or you can play it safe
being mediocre for all of your days
So keep positive in all you do
wielding your list of goals in hand
Fear not what others say
just focus on your plan
Enjoy every breath that passes
and every task there is to do
Since your actions will only play
the goals you have placed in cue
And always remember to gift
a little of everything you make
For life is defined by giving
and never by what you take

QUOTES for YOUR WEEK:
Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting.
Elizabeth Bibesco
 
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Winston Churchill
 
Simply give others a bit of yourself; a thoughtful act, a helpful idea, a word of appreciation, a lift over a rough spot, a sense of understanding, a timely suggestion. You take something out of your mind, garnished in kindness out of your heart, and put it into the other person's mind and heart.
Charles H. Burr
 
They serve best who give most of themselves. Self is forgotten by the one who serves, for such a one rejoices to see success coming to others through his or her efforts.
James Cash Penney
 
The measure of life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation.
Peter Marshall

QUOTE of the WEEK:
"If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook."
Les Giblin

POEM FOR YOUR WEEK
Smiles
Poet: Ella Wheeler Wilcox
 
Smile a little, smile a little,
As you go along,
Not alone when life is pleasant,
But when things go wrong.
Care delights to see you frowning,
Loves to hear you sigh;
Turn a smiling face upon her,
Quick the dame will fly.
 
Smile a little, smile a little,
All along the road;
Every life must have its burden,
Every heart its load.
Why sit down in gloom and darkness,
With your grief to sup?
As you drink Fate's bitter tonic
Smile across the cup.
 
Smile upon the troubled pilgrims
Whom you pass and meet;
Frowns are thorns, and smiles are blossoms
Oft for weary feet.
Do not make the way seem harder
By a sullen face,
Smile a little, smile a little,
Brighten up the place.
 
Smile upon your undone labor;
Not for one who grieves
O'er his task, waits wealth or glory;
He who smiles achieves.
Though you meet with loss and sorrow
In the passing years,
Smile a little, smile a little,
Even through your tears.

THOUGHT FOR YOUR WEEK
The Art of Living Each Day
By Wilferd A. Peterson
 
Each day is a lifetime in miniature.
 
To awaken each morning is to be born again, to fall asleep at night is to die to the day.
 
In between waking and sleeping are the golden hours of the day.  What we cannot do for a lifetime we can do for a daytime.
 
Anyone can hold their temper for a day and guard the words they speak.
 
Anyone can carry his burden heroically for one day.
 
Anyone can strive to be happy for a day and to spread happiness around.
 
Anyone can radiate love for a day.
 
Anyone can rise above fear for a day and meet each new situation with courage.
 
Anyone can be kind and thoughtful and considerate for a day.
 
Anyone can endeavor to learn something new each day and mark some growth.
 
The supreme art of living is to strive to live each day well.
 
When we fail and fall short, let us forgive ourselves and consider the words of Emerson:  "Finish every day and be done with it.  You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can.  Tomorrow is a new day; you will begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered by your old nonsense."
 
Live a day at a time and remember that tomorrow is another today.

QUOTES for YOUR WEEK:
Live for today.  Multitudes of people have failed to live for today. What they have had within their grasp today they have missed entirely, because only the future has intrigued them.
William Allen White
 
You have to count on living every single day in a way you believe will make you feel good about your life - so that if itwere over tomorrow, you'd be content with yourself.
Jane Seymour
 
Do not look back on happiness, or dream of it in the future. You are only sure of today; do not let yourself be cheated out of it.
Henry Ward Beecher
 
Today is a new day.  You will get out of it just what you put into it.
Mary Pickford
 
Some people are making such thorough preparation for rainy days that they aren't enjoying today's sunshine.
William Feather
 
Today's egg is better than tomorrow's hen.
Proverb
 
We want to live in the present, and the only history that is worth a tinker's damn is the history we make today.
Henry Ford
 
We all get 24 hours a day.  It's the only fair thing;it's the only thing that's equal.  It's up to us as to what we do with those 24 hours.
Sam Huff
 
Today is the only time we can possibly live.
Dale Carnegie
