Energy Management = Time Management. Become more aware of your energy and what it is telling you.

Do YOU want more energy?!

What if I told you that you have all the energy that you need already? Well it's true! We all do! It all comes down to how you are using it. For example if we take a look at most professional athletes, executives and celebrities, we can easily see that they have a lot of demands on them from other people. (Spouses, family members, friends, colleagues and the list goes on...) These demands can be good and bad and anywhere in-between. The point that I am trying to make, is that it's all energy usage. So if they are feeling like they need more energy to focus on their passion to do more, be better, enjoy it more, etc., they/we need to manage their energy. This is called energy management. It can also be known as time management. We know that the more catabolic (depleting) energy that we experience the more we can feel stressed, disappointed, frustrated, fearful, resentful, guilt, self-doubt, worry and even embarrassment. These feelings weigh heavy and eat up a lot of our energy that we could make better use of. The practice to shifting the energy to where it better serves us starts with becoming aware when the catabolic energy is in play. There are some physical signs that can help us. Some people get hot, as in hot and bothered, others feel it as aching in different parts of their bodies. No matter where it shows up for you you have the CHOICE to use this as an indicator, becoming aware that something is not working in your favor (not serving you). You now have the CHOICE to use this awareness as an OPPORTUNITY to take action to make a change even in the way you think about what is going on. This is a great time to get curious even creative about what to do or how do you want to experience the situation. Keep in mind that EVERY challenge is an OPPORTUNITY to be more of who we want and choose to be. So I may have given you something new to consider the next time you are feeling overwhelmed, in need of more energy. Just remember the choice in every 'opportunity' is always yours!
