Shortly after I started out as a professional baseball player in the Tri-State League, I was fired. “Frank,” the manager said      , “whatever you do after you leave here, put some       and enthusiasm into your work!” Well, that was the        thing I expected him to say.
A week later,      , I was introduced to the New Haven. My first day here will always       in my memory as a great event in my life. No one knew me in the league, so I was        to make myself the most enthusiastic ball player they’d ever seen. From the minute I       on the field, I acted like a man electrified. And I acted as if I were alive with a million      .
My biggest thrill came the following morning       I read in the New Haven newspaper: “This   45   player, Frank, has a barrel (桶) of enthusiasm. He        our boys. They looked better than at any time this season.” The newspapers began        me the life of the team.
Within two weeks, enthusiasm took me from $250 a month to $1850 a month—it       my income by 700 percent! Two years after that, I was       third base for the St. Louis and multiplied my income by thirty times. Enthusiasm       did it; nothing but enthusiasm.
Enthusiasm is by far the highest paid           on earth. It helps you become more successful, and       a healthier, richer and happier life. “To become enthusiastic—act enthusiastically.” Put this rule into       for thirty days and be prepared to see astonishing      . It may easily change your entire life. Can you acquire enthusiasm—or must you be born       it? Certainly you can acquire it!
