Enthusiasm will carry me farther than well intended discipline. I can be disciplined and yet not have one thought to write. With enthusiasm words jump onto the page to bring life to the reader. If I am not enthusiastic about what I write, why would anyone else want to read it? I believe the word enthusiasm is well connected with the word passion.
When writing with passion, energy flows through words and enthusiasm escorts the thoughts onto the page. Enthusiasm and passion can be the approach, the process, and the happy ending. The word discipline feels heavy and dense. It sounds rigid and unforgiving. It can be seen as a hash task master.
Enthusiasm is abundant and playful., or intense and painful. It is a symbol for creative expression whether writing, conversing, or playing a musical instrument. If I had to choose between enthusiasm and discipline, enthusiasm would win hands down … hands down and writing frantically!
