Introduction
The eighth principle of Napoleon Hill's 17 principles of success is the Enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is a strong feeling of active interest in something that we like to enjoy or relish. It is just like a steam in engine as steam runs the engine to its optimum speed, our enthusiasm can become the reason of our grand success. Enthusiasm is a very contagious trait and can deeply influence our target audience. Sales executives harness the power of enthusiasm very appropriately, by talking with exuberance. They convince their customers with sheer enthusiasm. Andrew Carnegie used to promote his enthusiastic executives very often. People say that knowledge is power but in reality enthusiasm is real power of any individual. Many speakers leave their audience spellbound but if we ask the audience about the content of the speech then they might not remember the speech. But they remember the enthusiasm of the speaker.
