What ENERGIZES you?


One of the easiest and most relate-able examples I can give is anger.   Think of a time you've been angry.   Burst of energy right?   Also fear?    Heartbeat goes up, adrenaline starts pumping and you are ready to fight or flight.   This energy though is often not coming from a good place, it is also not productive.   Often it is a quick burst that fizzles out.  

To quote Yoda -  “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”

Ain’t nobody got time for that!

You can also teach yourself to gain energy from your passions.   If you care enough to get angry, why not put that energy and care enough for those things that matter most in your life.  If you really embrace the power of your passion you will supercharge your life and motivate yourself to achieve more than you have in the past.   Allow that passion to push you toward positive things.   When you get riled up and the energy starts flowing try to stay in control of it and direct it at something that is useful to you.
