Enthusiastic by John Hardiman: Enthusiasm is one key to success. It is
about having a positive attitude and it cannot be substituted. In
other words, there's no alternative to enthusiasm. If you have a
passion for something, it is important to take responsibility for your
own enthusiasm. Attitude is a choice - thus enthusiasm is as well. If
you wait for others to spark your enthusiasm, success is completely
out of your hands. However, those who believe in what they do and
display their enthusiasm can greatly impact the success of our team.
It is essential, in order to achieve that success, to display and
spread your enthusiasm.

Two teammates who exemplify enthusiasm...

TJ - TJ and I were sitting on the bench when someone on the floor hit
a three. I remember the excitement TJ displayed and how he encouraged
that player to keep shooting. Being one of our best shooters, TJ
showed his enthusiasm because he didn't care who was taking the shots.
He was just excited for that player, and his enthusiasm in turn rubbed
off on me.

Josh B. - Even with the little things, Josh shows enthusiasm. He has
little comments here and there that often go unnoticed - except for by
me. His enthusiasm is clear wether he is on or off the floor as he
encourages and cheers on the rest of us.
