Advice!
Furthermore, Author Adam Grant talks about reflecting on a career, “no one says, I wish I had “caved in” more to other people’s expectations. Dont become a prisoner of peer pressure. Your main regrets aren’t the times you failed to follow the herd. They’re the times you failed to lead with your values”.
Leaders + Energy!
Above all, Leaders are role models to many. A key characteristic of great leaders is the ability to dig deep and “go within”. To explore self and understand who we are. After that, the mask and armour peel away, honesty, clarity and trust emerge.
Above all, finding your purpose, builds your energy that strengthens self belief. Furthermore, body, mind and spirit become aligned. Purpose then becomes clearer. Energy is amplified when you define your purpose.
In conclusion, “How can you manage energy”. However, this can be challenging in this busy world we live in when we wear many hats. In this interconnected age when we are “always on”.
My tips for you to amplify your energy are:-
1. Find your purpose and become passionate about it. Invest in yourself, find what brings you joy. When you do work that you love it becomes enjoyable and effortless.
2. Schedule in daily activities that bring you joy and make you happy and vibrant. The more you do what you love, the higher your energy vibrates at. The more energy you gain that leads to improved health.
3. Increase your self awareness by practicing meditation or mindfulness every day. Listen to the inner whispers and build and develop your intuition.
4. Lastly, you cannot amplify your energy if you do not support good physical health. To be effective and sustainable, try eating a clean diet with filtered water.
