QOD: “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It’s easy to be enthusiastic with a new idea.  The possibilities are endless.  The world is our oyster.  The trick is to be enthusiastic everyday, when the hard work comes, when things are not going right time and time again, we must stay enthusiastic.

If you are a salesperson, are you enthusiastic with every customer, potential or old?

If you are an entrepreneur, are you enthusiastic when things start to go wrong?

If you are simply an employee, are you enthusiastic with your daily tasks?

It’s from the Greek for “God Like” enthusiasm for a reason.  We need it to achieve our best.

There are lots of “tricks” to become enthusiastic daily (coffee doesn’t count). But if you really want to achieve anything, especially true happiness, you are going to need it, especially when it’s tough to have.
