The recipe for achieving happiness has a lot of ingredients.
Enthusiasm, or an intense feeling of excitement, is one of those ingredients.
When you are truly enthusiastic, you are ready to embrace your passions, regardless of what people think.
Enthusiasm And Confidence
Enthusiasm is just as important as confidence, if not more. Why?
Being excited about something is the first step to being confident!
Plus, excitement is a positive force that is fun and rewarding to share with others.
Social Courage
Unbridled enthusiasm takes guts!
Sometimes, people are afraid to speak up about what they believe in — if you feel this way, remember that you are eager to speak out for a reason!
This courage is contagious — you may inspire someone else to speak up too.
