Enthusiasm!  That certain something that makes us great – that pulls us out of the mediocre and commonplace – that builds into us Power.  It glows and shines, it lights up our faces.  Enthusiasm is the keynote that makes us sing and makes men and women sing with us. 

Enthusiasm – the maker of friends -the maker of smiles – the producer of confidence.  It cries to the world, “I’ve got what it takes.”  It tells all people that your job is a swell job – the company you own or work for just suits you – the goods you have are the best. 

Enthusiasm -the inspiration that makes you “wake up and live.”  It puts spring in your step – spring in your heart – a twinkle in your eyes – confidence in yourself and your fellowmen and women.   

Enthusiasm is reason gone mad to achieve a definite, rational objective. 

Enthusiasm is inflamed by opposition, but never converted; its’ the leaping lightning that blasts obstacles from its path. 

Enthusiasm is contagion that laughs at quarantine and inoculates all who come in contact with it. 

Enthusiasm is the vibrant thrill in your voice that sways the wills of others into harmony with your own.  

Enthusiasm is the “philosopher’s stone” that transmutes dull tasks into delightful deeds. 

Enthusiasm is a magnet that draws kindred souls with irresistible force and electrifies them with the magnetism of its own resolves. 

Enthusiasm – do you have it?  Then thank God for it.  If you haven’t got it – then get down on your knees and pray for it.
