[00:04.59]Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers urged,
[00:13.00]“Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.”
[00:21.87]How right they were! Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure,
[00:30.07]extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends.
[00:36.86]“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm,” wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.
[00:43.86]An enthusiastic attitude enables us to hang in there when the going gets tough.
[00:50.97]It's the inner drive that whispers, “I can do it!” when others believe it can't be done.
[00:58.19]We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder
[01:03.12]—as anyone knows who has ever seen an infant’s delight at the jingle of keys
[01:09.46]or the scurrying of a beetle.
[01:11.76]It is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such a youthful air, whatever their age.
[01:20.95]As poet and author Samuel Ullman once wrote,
[01:25.32]“Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
[01:32.65]We need to live each moment wholeheartedly, with all our senses
[01:38.57]—finding pleasure in the fragrance of a back-yard garden,
[01:43.05]the crayoned picture of a six-year-old, the enchanting beauty of a rainbow.
[01:49.50]It is such an enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes.
