How enthusiastic are you about your dream list that you have created? Do you eyes glow with sparkling light whenever you talked about your dream list?
Emerson said, “Nothing Great ever Achieves without Enthusiasm.” The word enthusiasm came from a Greek word enthios which means ‘the god within’ and that literally translate as; with enthusiasm, you will be able to achieve whatever your heart desire to be! Though, to achieve our heart desire, it may be influenced by many factors and the circumstances we were in, the chances of success are very much depend on our level of enthusiasm.
Without enthusiasm in doing what we aspiring to do, we will be dragging to work like hard labor, it definitely will affect the quality of our work; like the story that follows.
A man visited a sub-urban area and saw two workers were laying bricks. He approached the first man and asked, “What are you doing?” The first worker replied, “Don’t you see I am laying brick!” He then approached the second worker and asked the same question. The second worker replied, “Good Morning sir, I am building a magnificent building which will become the monument of this town. It will provide a meeting place for all of us and share our joys and achievement of this town!” Same job, different replies!
What makes the different? The only different is enthusiasm, for the first worker, it was just a routine job, for the second worker, he has a different vision that his work will serve the community and he found satisfaction in doing so.What is your level of enthusiasm in the work you are doing now? If it does not light
up your eyes when you talk about it, perhaps you should start thinking of writing your dream list.
Children are more enthusiastic about any thing that’s new to them. Tell them that you will bring them for a feast in any of the fast food chain; they will enthusiastically ask you everyday is it time yet for a week. Tell them that you will bring them for a beach holiday; they will enthusiastically asked you for a month. As adult, many seemed to loose the child in them, almost all things become routine to them and every day is just another day.
Run through the dream list that you have written; talk with your love one or your close friends, the one that brought sparkling eyes when you talk about it and with great enthusiasm, will probably be your heart desired dream. You may not aware when you speak about your heart desire dream but your listener would. Draw up a plan, design a strategy and work toward achieving it! You may not see the progress in near term, but with great enthusiasm and consistent work, you will be able to achieve your goal.
“Great results cannot be achieved at once, and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk-step by step.” Samuel Smiles.
Be enthusiastic in your Dream; Go for it!
