Enthusiasm

How do we generate enthusiasm? Why do we want someone to be enthusiastic? How can being enthusiastic help in your relationship?

The question is the benefit of enthusiasm in a relationship. Well why we don't just think about that for a brief moment. What good is it and who need it and why? I think that once enthusiasm in the relationship is gone then the relationship is headed for a downhill sparrow. The relationship is in grave danger and could end of one of you don't do something. It is almost like keeping the fire burning. This burden seems to fall on the woman. She is usually the one to notice when things are going wrong and act first. That is one of the wonderful gifts of the female species not to say that men do not try and generate enthusiasm in the relationship. I want to give a few examples how the wife or girl friend can help to stir up those lost intense feelings.

First, when pride is at stake a person goes through a lot, especially if it's the lost of a job and there is no means of support for the family. You must always be there to lift up, motivate and encourage let that mate know that there is nothing that they cannot do. You must be so convincing that the other person is eager to not give up. Because when they give up or have no more zeal left that puts a strain on the relationship. Sometimes this is draining on the one that is trying to generate enthusiasm.

A friend of mine husband lost a job that he had worked on for years and the job was his heart. He actually had allowed the job to become his very life. When he was fired he could not see himself doing no other job. He would look a few hours but nothing offered him what he had on that particular job. He slowly lost interest in everything including himself and just gave up. Why? Because a lack of enthusiasm on his behalf.

Secondly, some people are just the weak type and need to have someone to show passion and give them that extra zeal. Then there are times in all of our lives we need a little dose of enthusiasm just to keep us motivated and keep us going. Otherwise we too would lose our focus and give up or slow down. I think that when two people love each other they will work to keep each other enthusiastic about life. Not only about their life but everything that person is involved in should be done with great fervor.

When a person has great passion for life, what they do and, those around them it always makes for a happy and joyful relationship. Take the time and keep your mates enthusiastic and you both will be very happy. People that have a lot of zeal have very little room for being sad or unhappy. Who among us are not willing to do all that we can to have a blissful relationship.
