Day 19 of the #trust30 challenge
Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
How can you bring MORE enthusiasm into your work? What do you have to think or believe about your work to be totally excited about it? Answer it now.
(Author: Mars Dorian)
A number [bigger than I like to admit] of years ago a mentor of mine said to me that, “If you ever stop having fun doing what you are doing, go do something else.” He went on to suggest that being happy started with me. And, along those lines I later heard that happiness is an inside job.
Multifamily Happiness
It took me while but I have come to believe those words. And, in the context of today’s prompt, I believe that Enthusiasm starts with being happy in who you are. In my head it gets back to character. In fact and in contrast to Mars prompt, I don’t think work is the prompt that gets you juiced. Rather, YOU are the catalyst. YOU bring more enthusiasm to YOUR work by working on YOU!
Your believing that Happiness is an inside job contributor,

Right on! I always tell my team the day they wake up and don’t want to do this anymore, they need to give me their notice. Their attitudes and moods affect the whole team. You have to be happy with yourself and believe in the job you’re doing to be contagious and infect everyone else! 🙂
LZ – game on!
