The Practicality of Operating with Passionate Enthusiasm

Passion is a burning desire that is motivated from emotion. Enthusiasm is an intense, driving fervor or eagerness for what we do. The combination of inner desire and outer drive creates a powerful force to be reckoned with. Passionate enthusiasm repels negativity and clears the way to accomplish positive results in our lives.

Living with passionate enthusiasm can help you shift your context to a more positive perspective. With awareness and practice, it can be used to rid you of addiction to negative thoughts and help you get off the drama/trauma hamster wheel that consumes so many people's lives. See more details in the article, Sustaining Peak Moments.

Take the Heroic Challenge - See how well you've incorporated passionate enthusiasm into your heroic perspective.

Quotes

"When you bring passionate enthusiasm to your experiences, you activate a powerful force that shifts your relationship to yourself and others and propels your dreams into reality."
—Marion Moss Hubbard

"What's your BIG idea? What excites you? What takes your breath away, keeps you up at night, makes you smile all day long? What's your B-HAG? Sometimes it's "distant and far away," vague or fuzzy, but it's in there! Find it, dust it off and pursue it! People will join you and things will unfold in amazing ways. Lift your eyes, dream your dreams, take action! It's what makes life worth the living!"
—Phil Humbert

"You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm."
—Colette
