Gusto is a great word and just saying it creates a mental picture and brings life into the conversation. In its simplest form, gusto refers to the enjoyment or vigor in doing something. It’s an attitude of enthusiasm, zest, delight, glee, and positive energy.

How does it manifest itself?

Gusto comes from living life today. Seize the moment. Enjoy the here and now with spirit, passion and appreciation for life with all of its twists and turns. Don’t be immobilized by fear. Roll up your sleeves and go to work. Be open to new ventures. Don’t be defined by age, society or other people’s expectations and or perceived limitations. Adopt a positive attitude and the belief that no matter what your life’s circumstances are, you are in the process of evolving. Follow your dreams. You can do it!
