Enthusiasm is contagious
By Dorte | August 13, 2008
What are you enthusiastic about? Music, your work or field of expertise, reading, or ….? I am enthusiastic about a lot of things and over the years I have learned that whenever I meet or experience an enthusiastic person I sort of get smitten. Suddenly I find myself wanting to cook as brilliantly as Gordon Ramsay, or wanting to understand the working of Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to the fullest.
Working with innovative groups often involve a lot of enthusiasm, energy and drive to get something to happen - develop a new product, improve existing ones, introduce a new kind of service. As a matter of fact any group driven by enthusiasm will get a lot more accomplished than a group without. More often than not the enthusiasm originates with one person who by his/hers sheer energy and drive is able to spread a contagious excitement and energy within the group about the project in question. If YOU are receptive and open you will also get exited and inspired - and will probably be able to bring this intense feeling and energy back to your other work areas.
So look out for enthusiastic people - or become one yourself. And benefit from the amazing effect it can have on both you and others.
