Boost Your Enthusiasm

"Enthusiasm:  Enthusiasm is an amplifier by which you can turn up the volume, boosting the energy of everything you do, think or feel.  We often think of enthusiasm as caused by an external event.  However, it can be generated from within, becoming an intentional action for transforming virtually anything in our lives.  Enthusiasm can take the seemingly small, dull, boring, or unimportant and turn it into something new and magnificent.  Learn to strengthen the muscle of your enthusiasm, letting the tiny become great, and you will reclaim your energy and passion."
