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?
