Enthusiasm

The lucky or successful person has learned a simple secret call up, capture, evoke the feeling of success. When you feel successful and self confident, you will act successfully
-Maxwell Maltz

Enthusiasm is a state of mind that inspires and arouses one to put action into the task at hand. It is contagious, and vitally affects not only the enthusiast, but all with whom they come in contact as well.

The greatest leaders are the one who know how to inspire Enthusiasm in their followers.

How enthusiasm will affect you
Mix enthusiasm with your work and it will not seem difficult or monotonous. Enthusiasm will so energize your entire body that you can get along with less than half the usual amount of sleep and at the same time it will enable you to perform two or three times as much work as you usually perform in a given period, without fatigue.

Without enthusiasm you would resemble an electric battery without electricity.
Enthusiasm is the vital force with which you recharge your body and develop a dynamic personality.
Some people are blessed with natural enthusiasm, while others must acquire it.

The procedure through which it may be developed is simple. It begins by doing the work you like.
If you cannot engage in the work that you like best, for the time being, then you can continue in another line very effectively by adopting a definite chief aim that contemplates your engaging in your chosen work at some future time.

Lack of money and other circumstances over which you have no control may force you to engage in work that you do not like, but no one can stop you from determining in your own mind what your definite chief aim in life shall be. Nor can anyone stop you from planning ways and meas for translating this aim into reality, and nor can anyone stop you from mixing enthusiasm with your plans.

Happiness, the final object of all human effort is a state of mind that can be maintained only through the hope of future achievement. The happy person is the one who dreams of heights of achievement that are yet unattained. The things that you intended to own, there are the things that produce happiness.

There are the things over which you may become enthusiastic, no matter what your present station in life may be.

How your enthusiasm will affect others suggestion is the principle through which your words and your acts and even your state of mind influence others.

One feels the noblest, and acts the best, when the inspiration of enthusiasm drives him onward toward the attainment of some pre-established goal.

Your acts will count for more than your words, and woe unto you if the two fail to harmonize.

Problems are pattern that were learned in emotional circumstances during one period of life and that now have taken an existence of their own. Many times, outdated solutions replay themselves in a variety of life situations, leaving people mindlessly repeating their mistakes in work, love, and trading.

The resolution to problems can be found in what people are doing when those problems are not occurring.

Three Choices

When we are unhappy and our Life Conditions do not match our Blueprint, we have three choices as to how we’re going to handle the challenge: First Choice: Blame The first choice people have is to assign blame, and there are three things you can blame: a) Event . There’s a story, something that happened, behind why things are the way they are. However accurate the story may be, blaming an event is convenient because it helps preserve an identity designed to shield us from our true fears: fear of failure and fear of not being loved or accepted. b) Others . “I’m in this situation because this person …” Similarly, the story may be true, but it’s convenient and gives you comfort in the moment. “There’s nothing wrong with me. It’s this other person. There’s nothing I need to change.”  c) Yourself . Most people think that this is being responsible, but blaming yourself will not make it better. There’s a difference between responsibility and beating yourself up—between “Here’s a pattern th...

Wealth File #15 Rich people have their money work hard for them. Poor people work hard for their money

Working hard is important, but working hard alone will never make you rich. Rich people can spend their days playing and relaxing because they work smart. They understand and use leverage. They employ other people to work for them and their money to work for them. You do have to work hard for money. For rich people, however, this is a temporary situation. For poor people, it's permanent.. Rich people understand that "you" have to work hard until your "money" works hard enough to take your place they understand  the more your money works, the less you will have to work.

Rich people think long-term. They balance their spending on enjoyment today with investing for freedom tomorrow. Poor people think short-term. They run their lives based on immediate gratifications.
