Enthusiasm

“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”

-RALPH WALDO EMERSON

 

Emerson was certainly right-but not right enough. For enthusiasm is the key not only to the achievement of great things but to the accomplishment of anything that is worth while.

Enthusiasm is a wonderful word. But more,it is a wonderful feeling. It is a way of life. It is a magic spark that transforms “being into living”. It makes hard work easy- and enjoyable.

There is no better tonic for depression, no greater elixir forwhatever happens to be wrong at the moment, than enthusiasm.

No person who is enthusiastic about his work has anything to fear from life. All the opportunities in the world-and they are as plentiful today as ever despite what some people say-are waiting to be grasped by the people who are in love with what they are doing.

For as long as I can remember, whatever I was doing at the time was the most important thing in the world to me. Today I look forward to my next picture with the same degree of excitement and anticipation and enthusiasm with which I went into my very first production.

I have found enthusiasm for work and life to be the most precious ingredient in any recipe for successful living. And the greatest feature of this ingredient is that it is available to everyone- within himself.

萬事以熱誠為本

 

無熱誠,不能成大事。-愛默生

 

美國大思想家愛默生的話當然是對的,可是他說得還不夠充分。因為不僅成就大事需要熱誠,舉凡值得做的事,都需要熱誠才會有所成就。

熱誠是個奇妙的字,甚至,可以說是一種奇妙的感覺,它是一種生活之道,是一種使人生的性質由單純的生存變為真正生活的魔幻火花。它使難事化易,進而發生興趣。對於沮喪的心情而言,再也沒有比熱誠更有效的滋補了,一時間犯了過錯,也只有用熱誠這種萬靈藥才能贏得別人的諒解。

以熱誠工作為本的人,對人生無所畏懼,世上有許多工作機會仍等待著有工作熱誠的人去做-不管別人如何輕蔑的說法。

我總是記住,目前從事的工作,對我而言是世上最重要的工作。今天當我期望開拍下一部影片時,激動的情緒及渴望,熱誠的心情和我當年開始製作第一部影片時一點也沒有兩樣。

我發現,對工作和生活的熱誠,是成功生活非常重要的組成分子,這種分子最大的特色是不必求諸外界,它存在於每個人的內心。
