Default Cheerfulness more than Motivation

“3. Encouragement of a positive state of mind/emotions to others (motivation) in the now moment

The third grouping of definitions of cheerfulness is most extraordinary, in that it encompasses more qualities of encouragement of a positive state of mind/emotions to others than almost any other word in the English language, including motivation. What is even more interesting is that the word cheerfulness is not usually consciously recognized as having these qualities, even though the saying “smiling is infectious” is well understood.”
Cheerfulness

Never thought about it that way...

But it is true that the things that make you cheerful, well, you never seem to lack motivation to do them, and that people around you start feeling your positive vibe and respond to it (enhance the contagious smile).
