AYD - May 22, 2013 - What Boosts Your Enthusiasm?

"We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about. "
- Charles Kingsley, 1819- 1875


Would you not agree, that we are often distracted by the shiny?  Or by the new and improved must have it? Many of us guage our success by what we have got... by our stuff. 

We catagorize our achievement by where we are on the money scale ... what we have accumulated... or what we can "afford".   Not to take away from the enjoyment all of our stuff gives us ... I just like to be reminded of the root feeling that really gets us moving. 

Something in your life that gets your energy levels pumping up, that gets your effort into gear, that gets your heart involved.  

So, your challenge today is to ask yourself the obvious - What makes you enthusiastic?  What gets you to that place where it is hard to contain yourself?   What do you have to be enthusiastic about in your life?   What do you approach in your day with enthusiasm?  One thing...or all things?
