Your Enthusiasm
Enthusiasm is an attitude
Enthusiasm is an Attitude
‘EVERY GREAT AND COMMANDING MOVEMENT IN THE ANNALS OF THE WORLD IS DUE TO THE TRIUMPH OF ENTHUSIASM.’ – Ralph Waldo Emerson
A positive attitude will have positive results because attitudes are contagious. One such attitude is ENTHUSIASM. Elbert Hubbard said, “Nothing great has ever been accomplished without enthusiasm.” The difference between the good preacher and the great preacher, the good boss and the great boss, the good speaker and the great speaker or the good employee and the great employee is often enthusiasm.
The word “enthusiasm” comes from the Greek words en theos and simply means “God within.” If you look at the word “enthusiasm” the last four letters form an acrostic, “Iasm,” which can stand for “I am, sold, myself.” If you are sold yourself and if you truly believe in your cause, your company and your product, then you don’t have a “teeth-out” enthusiasm. You have an enthusiasm that comes from the well spring of all the resources within you.
Real enthusiasm is not something you “put on” and “take off” to fit the occasion, it is a way of life and not something you use to impress people. It has nothing to do with being loud or noisy; it is an outward expression of an inner feeling. Many extremely enthusiastic people are fairly quiet, yet every fiber of their being, every word and action, attest to the fact they love life and what it means to them. Some people who are enthusiastic are obviously loud, but loudness is neither a requisite for, nor is it necessarily an indication of enthusiasm.
Hence, show up with all the enthusiasm you can genuinely muster. Be outrageously energetic and madly alive. See the best in people. Go the extra mile to delight your customers. See the opportunity for learning and personal evolution amidst a seeming setback. Embrace change as a chance to grow. Have a laugh with a teammate. Tell your employees you adore them. Spread some passion. It is a universal phenomenon that you can’t control what happens to you each day but with an abundance of enthusiasm, one has no doubt that whatever the coming hours bring, you will handle them with grace, strength and a smile.
