Some of perspective terms have overlap. They are similar and have connection or things in common. But they have differences too. By using different but similar terms that describe the attitudes you want to cultivate in life, you get a full spectrum understanding.
Fanaticism or Fanatic is often shortened to “Fan”. Personally I think Fanatic has a stronger feel or connotation than the shorter Fan. If I say I am a football fan that still sounds tepid or weak to me. If I say I am a Football Fanatic or better yet a Full Fledged Football Fanatic that just sounds stronger, more like you mean it.
I encourage you to be a fanatic about something. Make it something sustainable and life giving. But be a fanatic. I think you can even be a fanatic about 2 or 3 things. Fanaticism has gotten a bad rap. Moderation and tepidness have become the order of the day. I think the Green Bay Packer fans that go shirtless at zero degrees and paint their bodies green and gold may be on to something.
Certainly it doesn’t have to involve sports either. What is it you truly love? Why not ‘kick it up a notch”? Get a little crazy about it. Dare to be wildly in love. Be a fanatic about your spouse or your job or your church. Refuse to live another day as a groveling, tepid, cowering soul.
