Enthusiasm Is Contagious




Have you ever been in the room with a person who has started a new business, job or hobby?  When they tell you about all of the exciting things happening, they are bubbling with excitement.  After a few minutes, you start to get excited too!  The energy in the room goes through the roof!  Questions are asked and answered quickly and the volume and pace of the conversation increases.

Now bring to mind a time when you talked to a person that was tired of their job or predicament.  How was that conversation different?  Most people try to be empathetic, but no one wants to be a part of that conversation.  The energy level of the conversation and the room is brought down.

Consider those two scenarios when you walk into a room to talk to a customer, prospect or even employees.  Which are you?  What energy level are you bringing?

If you are excited, enthusiastic, and positive it will translate to others in the room.  If not, the opposite will happen.  Want to be an entrepreneur, leader or sales person?  Be enthusiastic!

Enthusiasm is contagious…and also necessary!
