Are you ready to boost your health and revolutionize your energy with some new and surprising tactics? The best part about these tactics is they aren’t the subject of diverse and opposing opinions or scientific review. They won’t cost you a thing either. Are you ready to lift your energy and keep it strong now — and forever?
LIFE
Free Your Mind
Being in charge of your mind opens untold freedoms to you. Viktor Frankl learned during his Auschwitz internment that even though he was locked up and abused, his mind was free to choose how he responded to those who abused him. Nelson Mandela had the same experience during his 27 years in South African prisons. They both chose to be kind, optimistic, and forgive their transgressors. They both chose to make something of their lives. If they can master their minds, so can you.
Developing Your Influence Attitude
Influence is a valuable skill to have in life. It’s one way to stretch people, it’s an educational opportunity, and it’s a leadership activity.
Choose Effectively
The quote, “Busy is a choice. Stress is a choice. Joy is a choice. Choose well.”, is one I love because it’s a reminder that you choose your life. Maybe not all the things that happen to you, but for sure the way you react and respond to those things. You choose your level of presence and mindfulness. You choose how effective a human you are.
To Boldly Go…
Do you stand up for yourself? Do you stand up for what’s right? That’s part of what living “bravely” is about. Have you stopped to consider your level of bravery? Do you challenge yourself to work through your fears, like in doing things you’ve never done before and are uncomfortable thinking about? That’s another aspect of living “bravely”. So, let me dig a bit deeper and ask you if you are decisive, confident, and resilient? Can you live more boldly?
All The Right Stuff
What is it you think about when you hear me talk about living an energized life? Do you dismiss my words thinking you have enough energy, after all you get up (barely?), you perform your daily activities (sorta?), and you interact with people during the day (kinda?), and that’s all there is to living an energized life. Right? Not quite.
Mean What You Say
Having clarity supports clearer communication. When you aren’t clear with your thoughts and wants, you can fall into shaming patterns, garble your messages to others or not be forthright, and you can give away your personal power. Surprising what a lack of clarity can do to your life, isn’t it.
Focus Habits
Where is your focus? Our lives follow our focus, and our habits lead our success — success at whatever it is we are tackling and working on, be it personal or business. Do you need more focus to succeed?
Fences Make Good Lives
The advice you give others may apply to yourself more than you think. For example, I’ve coached people for years to establish rules, boundaries, and limitations in their businesses — for their clients and staff. That advice is good for you, too!
The Grasshopper And The Ant
The fable of the grasshopper and the ant paints the picture that play is bad and work is good, or at least that living for today gets you into trouble, and planning ahead lets you thrive. Depending on the version you encounter, you may hear morals of prepare for lean times or die, plan for the future, help the needy with your resources, or even something like there’s a time for “work” and a time for “play”. You can’t disagree that having fun is much easier and more satisfying in the moment than working all the time.
