Well, I have more brains than I have enthusiasm, and I’m pretty happy, so that can’t be too bad.
Hmmm... Then again, I’m not sure my definition of enthusiasm is correct. I was thinking sort of along the lines of gumption and stick-to-it-iveness, but if it means “taking joy in what you do”, then I’d have to vote for enthusiasm over brains.
Yes, I think of it more as joy/passion than gumption, although that's valuable too. But also, I read the question as having one but not the other, i.e. below some threshold that means being "not smart" or "not enthusiastic". I think which one you would want to have more of is an interesting and different question, but raises tricky issues about how to align the scales!
