“Enthusiasm makes the difference.”

-Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

This quote is very important and I agree with it 200%.  In life, there are so many things that are sad, that can makes us angry, that can make us feel blue.  But in life, there are much more things that are joyful and that can bring happiness into our lives if we let them.  Your attitude towards anything is what determines the power that circumstance has over you.  Being enthusiastic and energetic and positive about all of the obstacles that come your way will let you be in control.  You will feel like you have the power (which is the way it should be because this is YOUR life).  There is a quote that says “A negative mind will never give you a positive life.” and another quote that goes “Change your thoughts, change your life.”  Negativity is so common nowadays, everyone is always angry or upset or sad about something.  Your enthusiasm towards a situation will allow you to see that situation in a completely different light.  Even if that situation is unfortunate or you don't want to be in that situation, your outlook will change everything.  Your thoughts and attitude are what determine who and what is in control of your life - you, or the negative and ugly things in the world.  Be positive, think happy, motivating, fresh and energetic thoughts, and your life is guaranteed to change 110%.
