“Enthusiasm makes the difference.”

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

Reflection: This is very true because if you don’t want to do that thing they assign you then you won’t do it. The only way you would do it is if you were eager to do what they ask you to do. For example if you tell a person to do their chores they most likely will say no because that is not something they like to do but if you tell someone to eat a pizza they will eat it because it is satisficing to them.
