Creativity and Enthusiasm

Life and CREATIVITY is all about OUR ENTHUSIASM...

It is being inspired - full of spirit. It is being cheerful and happy. It is doing something wholeheartedly, with zeal and eagerness - giving 100% to what you do. Being enthusiastic is being excited about something, looking forward to it. It comes from having a positive attitude. Enthusiasm is a positive attitude.

When you enjoy whatever you are doing, even the most unappealing job can be fun and you can use your imagination for finding ways to enjoy what you are doing. Your enthusiasm shines through your smile!

As I watched intently a great game of 20/20 cricket played by my daughter’s team in the glorious sun over the week end and strolled past thousands of people enjoying their step back in time with their Art Deco week end, I felt their enthusiasm and positive energy, it was sort of human electricity.

It led me to think about how I am going to be an enthusiastic catalyst in my OSCAR work? How can I spread the infection of enthusiasm ? It will be a fun challenge for me, starting right here, by asking you all to check your “enthusometers” today, fill up with the smiles of the children and family or friends around you and convert this into positives.

Then after beginning this blog, came a wee reality check, as I went for an early morning walk along the riverbank and was initially annoyed by the rubbish lying around and falling out of overfilled rubbish bins.

It created for me a chance to make an enthusiastic choice, so when back at home and having caught my breath, I really looked to see what I could recycle and reuse from my own rubbish, what creative projects would unfold.

Something is, with plastic bottles and simple cuts and folds, so watch this space!! If you have a creative idea or are looking for some new ideas, you would like to share or try, write about it here and be part of the enthusiasm infection…..it is the only infection I am happy to catch and spread :)
