In an activity, we can find various people. There are people who seem very excited. There are people who always seem to want to be involved. There are people who just look. Some move only when there is direction. And many others. We can see that their interest in these activities varies. Those involved, not necessarily interested.
What kind of person do we become in an organization or activity? Do we want to be people who are really involved? Do we just want to be the ones who seem involved? Or do we want to be completely uninvolved? To find out, we can see it from the level of enthusiasm we have.
Enthusiasm is an attitude where we do something without coercion, and even want to always do our best. The more we like something, the more enthusiastic we are about it. We can imagine that people who really like cooking will be diligent in experimenting by trying new recipes, asking a lot of questions during cooking demonstrations, and even willing to look for complementary ingredients that can perfect their cooking. On the other hand, people who think that cooking is mediocre, will only cook simple ones with easily available ingredients and with the same menu.
Things that describe enthusiasm usually arise from our body language. The eyes do not turn anywhere and the body leans forward. Enthusiastic people will focus their attention on one point. When a person is not enthusiastic, his attention will be easily distracted, even he deliberately avoids if something feels boring.
Enthusiastic people will ask for more, while unenthusiastic people will ask to stop because they are bored to death. An enthusiastic person will have more power for something he likes, while an unenthusiastic person only has half his strength because he is not willing to give it up for something that is considered useless.
Can we be enthusiastic about everything?
Generally, that enthusiasm will appear by itself once we are faced with something we like. When we feel very excited, it means we are feeling very enthusiastic. However, if we can't find it then we can look for something that attracts us from something. For example, we are not interested in a subject, but we are interested in the teacher who teaches. Although this is not as strong as natural enthusiasm, but at least we have a reason to hang in there.
Although an enthusiasm is ours, sometimes the spirit of that enthusiasm can arouse the enthusiasm of others. So feel free to point it out when you're really feeling excited.
Besides being enthusiastic, it comes from yourself. Enthusiasm also depends on where we are. It is likely that we will also be enthusiastic if we are with enthusiastic people too.
