13 Jan Zeal – Giving Your All
What is zeal?
Zeal is giving your all. Zest is enthusiasm in action and implies a high sense of passion for a purpose, a cause or object. Zealousness is dedicating your whole life to something you are passionate about.
Positive, negative or neutral?
Zeal involves a great deal of energy and commitment. Zeal includes many positive and many negative ideas. Most importantly, when I think of both positive and negative circumstances, the variety of situations that I can think of both involve beliefs.
BS
BS is a common short-term phrase for bullshit – a game that is played in the movie ‘How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days’. BS also stands for Belief Systems. The majority of your beliefs have been learnt, either from your family or another role model in your life. Many opinions are just that, beliefs, not necessarily truths.
Zeal and purpose
Zeal has is used to influence people to come around to a particular way of thinking. Both good and evil. People who are passionate about a specific cause, either positive or negative, like to share it with others and get them on board with their purpose. You and I included.
The balance of zeal
Zeal is a wonderfully energised feeling, but, you must take on the personal responsibility required and think for yourself. Does it make sense? Who does it benefit? How would it impact the world? Are you contributing and making the world a better place? Is the cause a secret? If so, why? Are you open and honest about your reason? Will the cause harm anyone? Is there proof that your purpose makes the world a better place? Whatever your cause, whatever your thoughts – be kind, be kind, be kind.
