Power Month Challenge: Day One – Energy

January 8, 2019 by Jon Giaan

Welcome to power week month.

Starting on the second Tuesday of the year, this is what I call “power month.”

A lot of people have big intentions for the first week of the year, but let’s be honest, most of us are still drunk, or still on the beach, or both.

So no point throwing a lot of energy at that week.

Same deal for the first Monday back. We’re still getting familiar with our tools again, clearing out our inbox, and catching up on co-worker gossip.

But by Tuesday, you’ve got no excuse. And you are now into the week that will become a foundation for the rest of the year.

So let’s do something with it. I’m setting a seven-day one month challenge. Each week I’ll send you two quick 5-minute exercise that will sharpen your focus, resolve your will, and fill your sails for the year ahead.

All you’ve got to do is post your responses in the comment section below to go into the chance to win an I-pad. I’m not going to be a nazi about it, I’m not going to be watching time-stamps or anything like that. But to win, I do want to see you’ve had a crack at all seven challenges. (I’ll also hold off on counting til the end of next week, so if you miss a day you’ll have a chance to catch it up.)

And that’s it. It’s win-win. You get to sharpen your resolve and make a strong start to the year. AND you might win an ipad! (Interesting question: how many people on my list have the commitment for all seven challenges? Maybe your odds of winning are high?)

Anyway, let’s jump into it.

Challenge One: Energy

As some hippy dude in Byron Bay told me back in the 80s, “It’s all just energy, man.”

And to an extent he’s right. If we want to achieve anything, we need drive. That’s obvious.

However our energy levels have a massive impact on how we feel, our outlook on life, and even the kinds of opportunities we call down.

To a large extent, in my mind, the words “energy” and “mood” are interchangeable. “I’m in a good mood” is really just another way of saying “my energy is up.”

So for those of us on a productive path – for those of us looking to bust up the boring and the ordinary – we need to cultivate, spend, and protect our energies carefully.

So your challenge for day one is simple. Write down one thing that lifts your energy.

Now I want you to pause a moment here. Most people will write “exercise” by reflex. But that’s not the only source of energy, and for some people it isn’t at all.

And what I want you to look for is something that fills your cup across the spectrum.

So for me, running k’s on a treadmill is batsh#t boring. But banging out the same miles on a soccer field – that really fills my cup.

And ofcourse I’m not talking temporary highs like coffee or drugs or anything like that. You know the kind of energy your body is deeply craving.

So I want you to do an inventory of your life. What nourishes you and fills your energetic cup?

And then ask yourself one question: Am I doing it enough?

That’s it. That’s your challenge. Nice and easy to start.

Post your answers in the comment section, and lookout for your next challenge tomorrow on Friday.

Full power ahead.

JG

Ps – know anyone who could use a push or might like an easy way to win an ipda? Forward this on. It’s open to everyone.

    For me it’s having a great walk on the beach first thing in the morning and then diving in the waves to cool off. It always lifts my spirits and makes me glow and smile

        I feel the most energy after a good nights sleep of which I have had plenty of recently. My energy starts to go early afternoon which sometimes requires me to have an afternoon nap. It helps a bit but not as much as the full nights sleep

      Nature. Sitting in the garden or bushland, absorbing the earths vibes, listening to the birds, even the wind. Back to basics. Nature.

      For me it is appreciation coming after doing something good and unbidden for another – without expectation.

      Walking ‘Buddy’, my kelpie/german cross, most loyal friend, at 5.00am every morning, gives me a sense of being ‘Energised’ to contemplate the day ahead and on weekends, the life ahead and keeping it all in perspective.

      Sleeping well I have huge issues with sleep and when I’m sleeping my whole life feels better

      I have several:
      – getting up for an early morning walk or gym session
      – playing with my kids
      – playing sport (soccer, tennis, golf)
      – holidays
      – helping and teaching people.

      Working physically hard, like painting, renovating,it gives me energy and satisfaction when you step back and see what you’ve accomplished.

    I do a few exercise that are based on HIT High Intensity training., Your heart rate bumps up quickly and you are out of breath after 3 minutes. I am energetic the rest of the day.

  5. James says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:15 am

    Surfing at least once per week with the aim of getting it to a minimum of twice. If no surf, then 10 laps of the local 50 m ocean pool twice per week. Remembering I have a wife an two kids aged 8 and 5.

    I have to get up early and get out of the house, I find this gets my day started in a really positive and motivated way.

  9. Nesha says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:19 am

    A clean/tidy home is what boosts my energy the most.
    If there’s no junk and clutter to distract me, living gets done. Suddenly I can get out for a run, read the important stuff and not yell at my kids. Flow on effect is that everyone in my household follows suit. Win-win!

  10. Felicity says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:19 am

    Alone time. Mostly that involves a book, but not always. A bit of peace and quiet does wonders.

    • Natalie says

      January 17, 2019 at 10:35 am

      Actually getting up and getting out there. That’s at the beginning of my day.
      Actually making sure I have something to do each day.

      • Carrie says

        Balance and joy is my go to
        Or do what must be done,
        Then have me time.

        That sort of thing

  11. Jane Hoiting says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:21 am

    Listening to certain types of music gets my energy up and lifts my mood. The challenge is it’s also very distracting when I need to focus, especially the radio, so my to do today is to check out/create some ‘music to work to without being distracted’ spotify playlists. Done!

  12. Tim Robertson says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:23 am

    Spending time on holidays and traveling with family and friends. which I definitely don’t do enough of.

  13. Alan says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:24 am

    Getting up half hour earlier drinking water stretching and earthing my feet in to the bare earth

    Smiles on my kids faces

  15. Timbo says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:27 am

    Anticipation. Anticipation of something imminent. Walking into the room on the first day of a workshop. Leaving the outgrid for the start of a race. That first chairlift ride to the fresh powder snow. I think it’s watching the future sliding towards the present.

  16. Wayne says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:28 am

    Writing fills me up.

    Last year in November I spent a lot of that month writing the book I have been talking about doing for many years.

    Doing something I have forever wanted to do (but put off) gave me more elation than exercise ever has. I was more centred and had more energy than ever before.

    Have continued to add this to my routine in January for greater life balance – by doing things that bring me joy.

  17. Tatum Higgins says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:28 am

    Walking along the beach clears the mind and refocus which reboots my energy levels.

  18. Stephen says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:28 am

    Time in the saddle, behind bars. AKA riding my motorcycle early in the morning, Just me and the road, Zen for sure.

  19. Adam says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:30 am

    Late afternoon walk in the park and a mid morning swim after a hot spa at the pools.

  20. Andrew says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:31 am

    What fills my energy cup? Spending some quality time with my 4 year old daughter. Reminds me of everything I need to know about purpose, my focus, what’s important, etc. Once those things are clear, energy for getting on with what needs to be done flows in abundance. Of course, it consumes some energy hanging out with a 4 year old (-: But a very worthwhile investment…

  21. John MB says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:32 am

    Fresh air, walking in a well treed park, or bushland.

  22. Tristan says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:34 am

    Listen to some music or read a book. 3 songs or about 10 pages is usually enough to lift the energy a little.

  23. Macca says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:34 am

    Spending time on my boat. It’s not big or flash but it’s mine. Doesn’t need to be out cruising, could be just cleaning it in the marina, or just having lunch on the only piece of waterfront real estate I’ll most likely ever own. I come away from boat time feeling great. Do I get down there as much as I’d like? What do you think?

  24. Carey says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:35 am

    5klm walk in the forest, early in the morning as possible 🙂

  25. Sara says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:35 am

    Breath work. It is amazing when my tank is running low. Stopping and taking a few deep breaths and moving my arms in unison can really help.

  26. John Stephenson says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:36 am

    Working toward a viable goal that will benefit my family!

  27. Wayne says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:37 am

    Writing fills me up.

    Last year in November, I spent a lot of that month writing the book I have forever talked about (but always put off).

    Doing something I have always wanted to do filled me with so much energy and joy that now, in January, I have added it into my routine for greater life balance.

  28. Laura says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:38 am

    Going on a trip. Doesn’t matter the distances as long as it involves great nature. Plus a good book or good company to talk about the meaning of life 🙂

  29. Sondra Bellert says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:40 am

    Having sufficient sleep.

    Bushwalking-pretty simple really! I hate the gym, walking around the block is boring, So I love to take a besty and a packed lunch and exp[ore. It doesn’t even have to be out in the bush, there are amazing places to find and absorb in wonderful old Sydney town.

  31. Malcolm Coleman says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:42 am

    What gives me energy is a sense of a job done to the best of my ability

    Playing with my toddler son. He never stops unless he sleeps. Makes me feel so much better 🙂

    Listening to certain music lifts my mood and energy. The challenge is that it is often distracting, especially if its on the radio and I am working. To do today, create/source some Spotify ‘music to listen to while working’ playlists.

    Working on my hydroponic garden. I can work all day there, fine tuning everything to get the best out of the plants.

      January 9, 2019 at 4:21 pm

      Sound’s like you have mastered all old saying Mary-Ann

      Two thumbs up!

  36. Rob says

    Catching up with friends socially always fills my cup…..I must make a point of doing more of it this year!

    “A Good Night Rest” after shower and warm glass of milk

  38. Jeen Golden says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:53 am

    Funnily enough, when my alarm woke me up at 5:30 this morning, I had this resolve to start my day with a brisk half hour power walk. My mind was all for it but my body was screaming out for more sleep. Today, my mind won over. We had a warm night, so to go out into a very windy day feeling the cold bite in my skin was quite invigorating. The power walk is not a new resolve, it’s something I have been battling with for a while. The hardest thing is to be accountable for myself. The easiest excuse I have is, “if I don’t do my walk, I have extra time to put into studying”. Reality is, the amount of studying I have been doing, the hours of sitting and staring into a computer is draining – my eyes hurt, my body aches and my energy non-existent. I am hoping that I can keep up this resolve for 21 days for it to become habitual. During the walk, I was wondering how I can keep myself accountable and to keep my resolve, so to see the email by Jon is an uncanny answer to that. So, today is my first day towards my 21 days, but wait… new research now says it takes an average of 66 days to form a habit. The idea of 66 days is a little too much for me to handle at the moment, so for now, I will stick to 21 days. When I achieve that, perhaps it will be easier to set the next goal of 21 more days…

  39. Eug says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:54 am

    What gives me energy is when I discuss wealth-creation through property with friends, particularly, brainstorming ideas on how to get started, the basics, more advanced strategies and tips. It could be 5:30pm on a Friday after a long work week but somehow I find that I can effortlessly draw on an untapped and bottomless reserve of energy when this topic of discussion comes up.

  40. Robyn Hanney says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:55 am

    Coming home after an exhausting day, seeing the exuberance on my two kelpie’s faces at seeing me, having them run around me with excitement, and the pure joy I get from playing with them for a while and then all settling together on the lounge in contented bliss. It really fills my heart.

  41. Scott Briggs says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:57 am

    Morning slow exercise, not gym, but stretching , moving my aching back ,etc, especially outdoors, where I can breath & smell the morning air. I can also see the clouds tress & changing of the seasons.

  42. Pra says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:57 am

    I try to start my day reading or listening to at least one motivational quotes each morning before I step out of the bed. This brings in the positive energy to me and kind of prepares me to tackle with whatever may come along through out the day.

  43. Juliet Healy says

    January 8, 2019 at 10:57 am

    My life is complete when I am able to spend time with my grandchildren in a relaxed, fun, playful way. Or enjoy a nice horse ride

  44. Victoria Berry says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:00 am

    Creating a to do list & knocking it off – it doesn’t have to be big tasks, just the achievement of completing things.

  45. Jeanette Cheung says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:02 am

    I find being around positive motivated people lifts my energy and at the same time I try to be the same positive and motivated every day

  46. Kris Anderson says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:04 am

    I get energised from being challenged in doing a deal and succeeding.

  47. Shirley says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:07 am

    Walking my dog first thing in the morning through the bush. The combination of his joy, the birds and nature around us fills me with joy and gratitude for our lifestyle.

  48. Varun says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:10 am

    Satisfaction after completing a task

  49. Paula says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:13 am

    Being around my family and positive people is what stimulates me and also my dog who loves me unconditionally. The ocean is another great source of nourishment for me either walking along the beach or just watching the waves and also I love interacting with people and just listening to their stories.

  50. Matt P says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:15 am

    A quick session of sitting down, eyes closed, thinking about my long term goals and really living in that moment of achievement. It is also surprisingly motivating to want to prove to the naysayers and negative people in your life that you will achieve what you say you will achieve.

  51. Tom says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:15 am

    I love getting on the elliptical trainer

  52. John Read says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:16 am

    A new project, planning for it, my energy levels rise with new ideas. Whether its a work project or planning a camping trip, designing something for the camper. Once the ideas start flowing so does the energy.

  53. Sharon says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:16 am

    Singing has an enormous effect on my energy.

  54. Massie Feiz says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:16 am

    10 minutes meditation early in the morning and before going to bed at night. It makes me calm during the day. As a result my head wonders so much less and retains my energy to focus on getting my work done. My day ends up enormously productive.

  55. Stephen Bathgate says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:25 am

    Rather than catch the lift I get my energy for the day by walking up 11 flights of stairs to my computer desk at work.

  56. Steve says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:25 am

    Evening game of tennis with my son once or twice a week.
    and or a morning ride on the road bike with Mates lets you know you are alive and lifts spirits and energy!

  57. Jason Madden says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:26 am

    What gives me energy is organization. Without organization then faster progress towards goals can’t be achieved. Knowing I’m on top of all financial matters is also what gives me energy and direction.

  58. Marylou says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:31 am

    Yoga and stretching lift my energy.

  59. Hirotaka Yoshida says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:34 am

    Clarity,

    Ask my self “What one thing I can do right this moment to make biggest impact?”

  60. Georgia Voca says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:36 am

    Walk along a beach but even sitting watching the waves clears negativity and creates positive energy

  61. Carolyn says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:36 am

    Ticking something off my to do list, energizes and motivates me to achieve something else.

  62. Geraldine Chapman says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:42 am

    Finishing a new quilt design. When I feel I’ve got the interplay of the colours and textures just right it’s an amazing high for me.

  63. Rod says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:54 am

    For me it’s Dancing. Latin dancing like a red hot salsa.

  64. Kay says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:57 am

    Music. There’s always a song that can motivate and lift energy levels.

  65. Tracy D says

    January 8, 2019 at 11:59 am

    Exercise first thing in the morning always gives me energy for the rest of the day. But other than the physical energy it gives to my body, it is seeing other people out and about doing things that motivates me. Whether I go for a walk around the block or head to the gym in the morning – seeing other people helps me feel motivated. I work from home, so I have found this to be an important part of my work days.

  66. Janice Jones says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:00 pm

    Cleaning up my garden and feeling great about it looking so clean and green, looking at the trees around.

  67. Aaron says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:00 pm

    My son wont be able to get out today until I get home, so when I do we’ll be kicking the soccer ball and having a game of penalty shoot outs. A good chance to spend time with my son and relieve myself of the 9to5 JOB – Jon you stole my thunder

  68. Fiona says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:01 pm

    Clearing my work space in the mornings clears my mind.

  69. Brett says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:02 pm

    When I’m in my shed creating something from wood, metal or clay. Having an idea and bringing it to life is the biggest high

  70. Andrew Marcos says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:04 pm

    My favourite energy booster is going for a swim in summer, winter is more bike ride weather. The other not so obvious is taking a massive order, the motivation of having a nice pay day once the work is done brings energy right up!

  71. Rebecca Matheson says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:07 pm

    When I’m in class or on duty and a child remembers or implements something that I’ve been trying to teach them. The joy on their face is priceless!

  72. Anne Schwalb says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:10 pm

    Spending time with family and friends

  73. Juzzy says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:14 pm

    Going for a walk around the block after dinner.

  74. Sasee Manodeepan says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:16 pm

    Half an hour Brisk Walk in the morning through the greens

  75. Belinda says

    January 8, 2019 at 12:18 pm

    I find that internally reflecting lifts my energy. Journaling is a good way to reflect or make sense of events and emotions. I don’t do it enough.

    I find my energy increases when I get home to my kids and the 2 fur-babies are so excited to see me! I take them for a walk and they are so happy just hanging out, it makes me happy too. Its now become something I look forward to after work, instead of the bottle of wine! (a 2018 habit I’ve crushed!)

    My energy boost is playing and engaging with my daughter for 15-20mins on a daily basis. To see her smile and hear her laugh is my positivity and gratitude booster 🙂

    I love listening to music to raise my energy levels, I really love X Factor reruns etc…
    I also love to be super organised and on point, that gives me a real buzz!!!

    An early night is the best energiser for me. Waking up early and naturally makes the day clearer and puts zest into the plan, project or whatever adventure is in store for the day.

    Spending time with my two year old boy for 10 minutes after shower and before work lifts my energy

  88. Sally Hudson says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:05 pm

    Two things raise my energy- the first is riding my horses, which I’m not doing enough. The second thing is just taking a breath, getting present and becoming aware of something beautiful in my life that I’m grateful for, It could be my son laughing, or a butterfly, or a pretty flower, or some birds flying overhead or chirping= I do this a LOT and the more I’ve been doing it, the more things I find to take a moment to just pause and be grateful. It makes a big difference to my energy 🙂

  89. Reece Wenzel says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:06 pm

    I receieve energy by having people around me. I discovered this when doing a charity event. 100km hike in 48 hours except we did it in 22 hours! (Non stop -no sleep) it was a team of 4 event but at times when I was in pain i ended up by myself. It was only when i caught back up to someone wether they were in my team or another group i felt my enegery lift up dramtically. So people is my enegery source

  90. April Kohlmann says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:12 pm

    I love bric-a-brac shops or towns/areas with lots of hand-made, crafty places. I don’t need to buy anything but I find my curiosity is treated and I gain inspiration for aspects of my life as the buzz in my heart and stomach grows.

  91. Victor says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:13 pm

    Designing, Art and architecture gives me energy especially inspirational energ and motivation to move forward. Learning new things and acquiring new skills such as how to invest to skills in soccer etc gives me energy and makes me feel energised

  92. Adam Stone says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:25 pm

    Exercise first thing in the morning, which sets me up for the day. If I don’t exercise first thing, it often doesn’t get done (minimum 30 min each day). None more so than a run on the beach at low tide followed by a dip in the ocean – good for the soul.

  93. Damian Phillips says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:32 pm

  94. Pete says

    January 8, 2019 at 1:33 pm

    I get energised by being organised and ticking things off the to-do list… But how do I get the energy to commence the first task on my to-do list? By categorising all the tasks by priority of course!

    (Don’t laugh, there are other people out there who relate to this… You know who you are!)

    Ticking items off my goals list gives me a sense of achievement. Makes me feel good and of course lifts my energy

  98. Anca says

    January 8, 2019 at 2:33 pm

    This was a really interesting question for me. My energy actually doesn’t come from anyone else in the sense that it’s not affected by other influences I really feel that it comes from within and my own goals and achievements

    It’s getting in my car every morning on the way to my Normal job in my normal car and reflecting on my acheivements so far and goals for that day, week, month.

    It’s really the small steps I can apply to improve my situation that day whether it be wealth, health or anything else I aspire.

    I am 28 and have been actively investing in property since I was 19. Along the way I have made a lot of good decisions and learnt a hell of a lot from the not so good ones.

    My energy comes from reflection and moving forward in a positive way. Learning from my mistakes and reaching for things that sometimes seem out of reach. It’s problem solving life.

    I am a true believer that only you can create true happiness and energy within.

    It’s easy to get stuck in a rut and tread water but it’s important to remember that somehow you made it this far and you should be proud of your acheivements

    self improvement and moving forward in a positive way is key to getting that extra bit of energy every day!

  99. Ursula says

    January 8, 2019 at 2:38 pm

    A 30 minute walk every morning gets me energized for the day.
    Then assisting people to reach their full potential allows me to maintain that energy throughout the day.

  100. Thomas A Mirgiannis says

    January 8, 2019 at 2:50 pm

    Having an early morning exercise session. I either catch the 6am Yoga, or the 6:15 Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu class at my locals. These make a great start to me day and make work a PART of the day instead of the beginning. I have a coffee before class, mosy on in, work up a massive sweat and then shower off!
    I’ve loosened up, released some energy and am now fresh and ready to begin a days work!

  101. Tim says

    January 8, 2019 at 2:56 pm

    I wish I had something like this that was my power. Daily, it varies… I know a great workout with a muscular pump feels great. But I feel there is something amiss.
    Helping others is another way… at my job if I can help someone and they’re genuinely thankful it fills my heart with joy that I made a difference.
    I’m still searching for that other thing though

  102. Angela says

    January 8, 2019 at 3:03 pm

  103. Michael says

    January 8, 2019 at 3:11 pm

    I gain energy in the mornings when I do a group of exercises and stretches. Afterwards I feel good and motivated and positive. On the days I procrastinate and don’t do them, I feel like crap, so I try to get up and do them before the brain kicks in to stop me.

  104. Steve says

    January 8, 2019 at 3:21 pm

    What energises me is doing the extraordinary in nature. I love watching lightening and thunder energise the senses, singing and dancing in the rain, the smell of rain after a hot dry spell, a challenging bushwalk up a mountain trail or a walk along the beach hand in hand with my gorgeous partner

    January 8, 2019 at 3:43 pm

    Juggling 5 balls in a continuous cascade for as long as I can, usually about 15 throws after I have juggled 3 balls in about 4 different patterns really lifts my energy and focus.

    Easy! Hearing great music that I truly love, no matter what other people think of my ‘taste’

  109. Judie says

    January 8, 2019 at 4:00 pm

    Reading a good motivational book or article by someone who knows what they are talking about (i.e. a successful person in their own right) always leaves me energized and inspired to move forward. Fave reads at the moment are Robert Greene (The 48 Laws of Power, The Laws of Human Nature etc.) and (of course) anything by Dymphna – she just makes a lot of sense.

  110. Braden Wright says

    January 8, 2019 at 4:19 pm

    The small stuff! A clean and tidy home, an organised planned day and with renovations it can be one of my biggest challenges. Keeping to the plan and achieving those smaller goals on my to do list is what boosts my energy the most!!!
    If there’s no mess/junk, disorganisation I can concentrate on the bigger jobs without clutter to distract me, living and my jobs get done. Flow on effect is that my workers and family in my household follows suit. Win-win!

  111. Ben Mayne says

    January 8, 2019 at 4:21 pm

  113. Michael Dean-Jones says

    January 8, 2019 at 4:25 pm

    Creativity. . . if it’s mine that’s fabulous, but if not then witnessing others, the energy that emanates from the flow of creative juices is powerful and motivating.

    Do I do it enough, . . that’s the tough question, there;s always room for more. The ideas are plentiful but the time for execution isn’t always available, (something I’m working on), but I do draw pleasure from watching other creative ideas come to fruition.

    Kayaking first thing on the morning when the water is like glass and only the sounds of birds and insects can be heard. Listening to the rhythmic sound of the paddle as it goes into the water.

  116. Clifford Groenewald says

    The feeling I get after a job well done. It makes me want to get the next job done well too.

  118. Gilles says

    January 8, 2019 at 5:09 pm

    – Ticking off my to do list; even better when it’s written on the whiteboard and I can tick it off with the green marker. And I just think:”Let’s F***ing smash the next one”.
    – If I have nothing to do (pretty rare), watching the blue sky with trees/palms in the foreground and being grateful to see these beautiful colours.

  119. Ben Miliunas says

    January 8, 2019 at 5:18 pm

    Enough sleep, a decent nourishing breakfast and coffee will just about have me ready for the day. Then I did activities over the break that really relaxed me. Surfing, walking, picking berries, visit the Zoo, out to dinner and a bit of me time.

    So the emails are back again… I thought I was kicked off… 🙂
    You have a point – sometimes you do skip a day or two of email bombardment at work. Still working through mine from Christmas!

  120. BARBARA NEUMAIR says

    January 8, 2019 at 5:58 pm

    I really get a kick start or proud feeling when I can tick off my 7 day goals. There’s usually quite a few (more than 7) important things I need to do for the week.
    I also enjoy filling out my Gratitude book daily before I hit the pillow.

  121. Angela Leahy says

    January 8, 2019 at 6:12 pm

    Any time I am close to nature I feel grounded and energised. Whether it’s the beach, a rainforest walk, a wetland, or just sitting on my verandah, there is nothing more conducive to reducing your stress and gathering your thoughts.

  122. andrew thomas says

    January 8, 2019 at 6:23 pm

    Waking up in the morning and as i walk to my bathroom I have fantastic photos of all my kids and grandkids smiling and having fun . This lifts my energy big time . Then I pass my vision board. say no more. Ive only just started intensive aerobic workouts early hours of the morning and this has been a game changer for me. Then my random acts of kindness throughout the day and seeing the reaction on peoples faces gives me another burst .

    A motorbike ride up Tambourine Mountain with a friend, throw in breakfast at Canungra and drink in the view to the hinterland at the top of the hill.
    I am going to do it this Sunday.

  126. Sheree millar says

    January 8, 2019 at 6:57 pm

    Listening to relaxation or meditation music first thing before getting out of bed and going to sleep & visualising my goals & plans for the day and the future. Just set up a room just for this so that is exciting. Throwing the ball for the dogs in the morning. Playing with and cuddling all my pets keeps me relaxed and balanced. Do lots of all this.
    Enjoy playing board games with the kids & having a laugh and relaxing in the bath while watching or listening to something. Both these I don’t do enough & working on that.
    Just started listening to audio books and loving it.

  127. Sheree Millar says

    January 8, 2019 at 6:59 pm

    January 8, 2019 at 7:24 pm

    Starting the day with a walk in the beach with my family, while enjoying my first coffee. Followed by a quick dip in the ocean. Charges me up for the rest of the day.

  129. Victoria Mizzi says

    January 8, 2019 at 7:39 pm

    Being in nature fills my soul and restores me. My home office is on the second floor, opposite a half acre grassed reserve with 5 large trees. Thanks to the large window being 3 horizontal panels, one of the cross frames at my eyesight level completely hides the houses beyond the green, so I have a perfect grass/tree/sky view from my desk, and can feel the breezes through the open window as I watch the leaves sway and dance. Really lifts my energy, so I do it often. When I get the urge, I head off for a short walk outside, especially when the neighbourhood roses are blooming. Whoever entreated us to stop and smell the roses was right – when you can find the scented old yellows and damasks. The people that hybridised roses favouring size and colour over perfume should be ****.

  130. Yamile says

    January 8, 2019 at 7:49 pm

    Pray early in the morning, be grateful, go out with my kids, help out someone and gather with my family together for a meal, all of them make my energy High and look out the life very positive about everything

  131. Hugo Cardenas says

    January 8, 2019 at 8:16 pm

    For me do sport, I like to play squash, start every morning with a nice music, happy music that you can dance, I like talk to my workmates and spend nice time with my family (wife and Kids) watching a movie or play card games.

    Spending time outdoors not fussy on where, beach, rainforest, bush, anywhere that preferably has limited ppl! And writing. Clears my mind and gives me energy to fill it up again!

  134. Lauren says

    January 8, 2019 at 9:06 pm

    Spending time with motivated people who are creating their lives; completing a task that moves my life forward; dancing. And no, I don’t spend enough time doing any of these….thanks for the reminder 🙂

  135. Patricia Tattersfield says

    January 8, 2019 at 9:21 pm

    Two things: salsa dancing, feeling the rhythm coursing through me, while trying to instantaneously sense what move my dance partner is starting to make and the exhilaration of seeing if my body is going to intuitively make the right response – because there’s no time to consciously think about it! Secondly, going to an enclosed bay beach with fish worth snorkeling for, and when it is really hot, forcing myself to go on into the icy water – it can feel a bit painful at first but is worth it for the contrast of the hot sun and the cool water once you are used to it. Spinning in the water and then lying back, floating on the water, totally relaxed and weightless.

  136. Lorraine says

    January 8, 2019 at 9:42 pm

    Completing a task, whether it be large or small gives me that energy uplift.
    Today is was taking all the skirtings off at my place, so that we can replace the flooring.

    January 8, 2019 at 10:17 pm

    Creativity! I am really in the moment when I am creating, whether it be sewing. painting furniture, baking, knitting or anything else I can do with my hands. The sense of calm and peace and the satisfaction when I have completed something is enormous. Have set myself a goal of 60 days of creativity for the year – it’s amazing how much easier it is to achieve once you have actually written it down. The power of the written word is amazing.

    January 9, 2019 at 10:36 am

    Was energized when I took a contractor for a long walk in the paddocks to see about removing the gorse bushes. Needed a long rest on between and enjoyed the chat and the view. Got energized again to sort out the office (and the whole house which has gotten very messy due to being on a flunk for so long) then read all the other goals and lost all the energy again! Seems I need so.eone around to stay motivated. Seems motivation gives me energy. Invite someone over and that gives me energy to tidy the place up before they arrive?

  150. Geoff says

    January 9, 2019 at 10:49 am

    For me three things:
    1. Going car racing with my 11 year old son who is so passionate about the sport – it’s a total buzz to hear him speak with pit crew and drivers in such an engaging and knowledgeable way – he educates me about the cars!
    2. Anything surfing related – even body surfing first thing in the morning – like a zen moment when you are on wave. Clears the mind and refreshes the body; and
    3. That moment when you are teaching or coaching someone and the light bulb goes on for them – Boom! The very essence of empowerment – they’ve learnt something new and have experienced personal growth. That is a real high.
    Cheers G

  151. Eva McQueen says

    January 9, 2019 at 10:51 am

    I do a to-do list before bed so that when I get up in the morning I can tick off at least the most important 5 things before I get into the daily grind. This makes me feel good that I have achieved some things that were needed to get done and energises me to achieve more through the day.

  152. Chelsea Lewis says

    January 9, 2019 at 11:07 am

    Beach swimming 2x a week. There’s nothing like the walk along the beach to where you need to be with the sound of the waves soothing the soul before a dip.

  153. Jane says

    January 9, 2019 at 11:43 am

    Its been great to realize there are lots of things that lift my energy levels…. all of which I could do more often. Finding ways to make someones day better is is one of these things.

  154. Mike Day says

    January 9, 2019 at 11:47 am

    My energy supercharge comes when I pursue my passions and achieve the results I set out to achieve, be it daily, weekly or monthly goals. Those achievements create an energy I don’t get from anything else. To keep going and put in that extra time because it doesn’t feel like work. It’s what you’re passionate about.

  155. Teresita says

    January 9, 2019 at 11:55 am

    Solitude. An hour to myself with a movie, tea and biscuits and I’m recharged. I need to get better at communicating this need to others, rather than getting to the point of exhaustion and then demanding it!

  157. Gil says

    January 9, 2019 at 12:15 pm

    Listening to my favourite music, up nice and loud, gets me pumped for the day. Similarly listening to motivators on Youtube – the likes of Tony Robbins, and surprisingly Jim Carrey & Matthew McConaughey, puts me in the right frame of mind for the day.

  158. Jacqueline Heinz says

    January 9, 2019 at 12:18 pm

    Doing a class of pilates or walking along the coastal walk in the morning. It helps me get my head straight and set up my day as I plan it while I exercise.

    The comments are all so interesting and I could relate to so many – it’s great to see what lifts people, Mine is simply the great feeling I get when I finish cleaning the horse yards and they look so good! Hopefully one day it’ll also be the feeling of having achieved some goals in real estate…….

    January 9, 2019 at 12:38 pm

    It’s having a ‘win’ ( not a gambling win ) or a ‘success’ ; it’s ‘when the plan comes together’ and it’s a thing of beauty; sometimes it’s overcoming an obstacle … It’s ‘nothing succeeds like success’. Can be a big-thing or a small thing. And ….. it’s the reverse that gets me down. I call it the ‘rabbit punch’ effect. One thing goes wrong, then another, then another. Why three ? I don’t know. It’s cumulative somehow. Sometimes that’s the time to ‘sharpen the saw’ , take a break ….. make a cup of tea and have a sit and a think.

    January 9, 2019 at 12:50 pm

    So many things that energise me…..
    Taking on a problem and solving it! The construction industry i work in is riddled with challenges! There is never a dull moment!
    A hard game of squash also makes my day – especially if I beat a player ranked higher than me! What joy!!
    Getting funding for my development approved….
    Sales of my developments and returning profits to my Investors/partners
    Striking a great property deal after some solid negotiations……. signing up the next project!

  172. Mark says

    January 9, 2019 at 12:51 pm

    The way I increase
    My energy levels is to
    A) get out of an early morning on the paddle board
    B) do something with my kids like a bike ride or swim
    C) do something nice for my wife

    January 9, 2019 at 12:56 pm

    Picking my fresh vegetables that I have grown, watering my beautiful garden and watching the birds play in the water fountains and eat the fruit on the trees. It keeps me grounded, gives me purpose and I enjoy the contribution to the health and energy of the environment around me.

    Breath work, visualisation and meditation actually raises my energy and makes me feel at peace and connected but I certainly don’t do it enough as I’m fenerally one to exercise physicallyout of habit. Thanks for making me realise what I need to do more 😊

    Definitely early morning exercise – wether it be a sweating HIIT workout or horse riding as the sunrises – exercise sets me up for what ever the rest of the day may bring.

    A nice deep uninterrupted sleep of 6-8 hours of a night, really sets me up full of energy, for the following day.

    January 9, 2019 at 1:25 pm

    my comment of listening to music (3 songs) and reading from a book (10 pages) failed to mention that i have made an active decision to increase these things in my life. At present, i would say I am doing it enough. Here’s to power week/month for boosting my resolve!

  185. Glen R Heinz says

    January 9, 2019 at 1:26 pm

  188. Brett says

    January 9, 2019 at 1:40 pm

    The Ocean is my energy source… Kiting, surfing, diving, sailing, walking beside it even just watching it! Do I get to do enough of it, yes and no. Lucky for me I live near a beautiful one, so yes. However my work is a long way from it, so no.

  189. maree says

    January 9, 2019 at 1:40 pm

    For the last month, I have been writing first thing in the morning for about an hour. As a morning person I tend to wake up early ! start with ‘writers pages’ about 300 -500 words of anything- bit like stream of consciousness, which clears the mind. Then 500 words on the current story or article. I am discovering that this frees up my mind for the challenges ahead, plus it feels like I have accomplished a task for the day – energising the mind and spirit.

  190. Meg Hogan says

  192. Sara says

    January 9, 2019 at 1:56 pm

    For me it absolutely is the gym. I go as soon as I wake up in the morning, put on tunes to suit my head space, sometimes R&B, sometimes hard rock, sometimes soul, or sometimes I read a book instead. However I do it, and however hard I go at it, it’s the fact of getting my body and brain moving first thing that powers fme for the rest of the day.

  193. Steve Fish says

    January 9, 2019 at 2:04 pm

    grounding. Walking barefoot on the grass while walking the dog around our local park. Usually do this around dusk so it’s cooler and there is lots of wildlife around the lake. It’s great just being in nature.

    January 9, 2019 at 2:19 pm

    Love the fact that the guy commenting before me, had some similarities. Walking the dog around the lake.
    My day yesterday. down to the jetty out and check the crab pots. Back had dinner then went for 45 minutes doing some lure fishing. Dinner for tonight in the bag.
    Lately I am concentrating on a number of things. Reading The Answer. By Alan and Barbara Pease. Listening to CD’s on mindset in the car. As I feel the energy form getting through my priorities , feels great. Love to read No BS Friday.
    Remembered you did say one thing. 🙂

  198. Sandie says

    January 9, 2019 at 2:20 pm

    January 9, 2019 at 2:49 pm

    Getting on 2 wheels

  207. Duncan says

    January 9, 2019 at 2:54 pm

    Total absorption in a task . It is a type of meditation that excludes all other things around me .It can be physical or purely mental. It could be design and construction of something in the workshop or maybe creating some poetry. I suppose it allows my mind to reset

  208. Gen says

    January 9, 2019 at 2:56 pm

    Waking up next to my s.o gives me the energy to get through anything the day will throw at me.

  212. Peta says

    January 9, 2019 at 3:32 pm

    Walking along the beach smelling the sea air and watching the waves crash. I don’t nearly do it enough tho, time to change that this year!

    I am at quite a low point, so thank you John for this exercise to help me find at least one positive thing to be grateful/ energised for. I do get a sense of accomplishment after mowing my 3 acres and have it looking neat and tidy.

  215. Claudia says

  216. Gail says

    January 9, 2019 at 4:03 pm

    Starting my day with running my dog Scruffy (a rescue dog). The exercise energizes me. But it is also seeing his pure enjoyment in running. In addition, stopping and chatting with locals and our dogs making friends. Pure joy. I am ready for the day.

    I then go on to arrange exciting projects and internships that change people’s lives. Which means I go home energized to work on stuff for me and my other projects.

  217. Jody Chambers says

    January 9, 2019 at 4:07 pm

    I get a blast out of re-using old cr#p and turning it into something useful and aesthetically pleasing.
    It doesn’t matter if it’s an discarded old bit of farm machinery, some rusty bent piece of cgi (corrugated iron), a white ant eaten fence post or a new found treasure from the local tip, if I can make it into something I get all fired up and when it’s done I feel pretty darn good! And then I’ll probably reward myself with a sherbet or six while I sit back and admire the fruits. Cheers Jon

  218. Sue says

    January 9, 2019 at 4:14 pm

    I really struggled to answer this one. Had a touch of the “Black Dog” for the last year so its actually not an easy question to answer. Then I read through everybody else’s answers and started thinking, well yeh sport/exercise/motorcycle riding/music etc are all good and do make me feel “good” but do they really give me energy …or are they really equal parts escapism & self nurture.
    So after much self analysis, what gives me energy is …. competition….

  230. Belinda Helps says

    January 9, 2019 at 7:47 pm

    a good walk in nature or by the water. Actually, even being in nature without the exercise can be just as energizing. I’d do this 4-5 times a week

  231. Melissa says

    January 9, 2019 at 8:11 pm

    I love to dance, it has been my lifes passion. Moving to music ALWAYS energises me.
    Now that I am older I also love to walk along the beach and try to do so every day. The awesomeness of the ocean keeps me aware that ” There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio than are dreamt of in your philosophy”!

    For me its two things, firstly i start my day with Crossfit, its a good enorphine release and also a great way to challenge myself each morning, and secondly as i go to sleep i listen to Theta Brain Wave therapy recordings, or theta brain synchronisation.. its a great way to raise your vibrations and when your energy vibrations are high, the ability to maintain a positive mindset is so much easier, positive attracts positive!

  239. Heather Wilson says

    seeking Justice, motivates me and provides me energy to do something about it, by physically, emotionally and intellectually applying myself to engage in seeking solution through designing and offering participation for those who seek change.
    The main objectives is to encourage people in need to involve themselves in training, community and household projects and employment. In the offerings they are opportunities to look at individual developments by the individual themselves i.e. personal presentations, vocabulary and attitude thus providing and accepting a better outlook of oneself and their particular situation to allow and accept change to happen.

    Onya Jon!! I really had to think about this one, my first thought was exercise, usally 6 days a week, at 55yo exercise gets me moving for the day, literally gets these ol bones & muscles limber for the day & keeps me fit to set the pace with the grankids – Rocks my soul

    My next thought was my daily (most) bible reading & praying, this reminds me that I am a much loved child of the creator God of the universe & he wants the best for me & from me – Keeps me grateful

    The next thought was, as a project manager, goal setting is everything! Long term, short term & daily. Ticking these goals off daily – Give me a sense of achievement

    So what gives me energy – Joy in life, progress in work & life & change, both personally & in my environment

  250. Sue says

    January 10, 2019 at 6:32 am

    What improves my energy is spending as much time with my 4 grandsons, and dealing with the complexities of there young lives. They give you a second lease on life that you won’t get off your social media apps. Seeing life through there eyes. Its refreshing, gives you more energy and improves your metal and physical alertness with there questions on life. Wow what an experience.

    Dance class.
    The thinking/focus/social/touch/exercise washes my mind, resets my mood no matter what I baggage I arrived with.
    Through all sorts of adversity, depression, whatever, it still strikes me as somewhat miraculous the way this never fails. I often can’t remember what I was thinking or feeling before class started.

    Walking along the beach near my home with my dogs and counting my blessings as I do so.
    Have you noticed how many of the comments relate to going outside and being with nature or friends/family. Not one that I read said Shopping or mastering a new computer game…! Is there a lesson there for us?

  285. Cathy Beddy says

    January 10, 2019 at 12:53 pm

    Finding somewhere quiet and peaceful, closing my eyes and visualising in glorious, technicolour, minute detail one of the dreams I have imagined for myself this year. Involving all the senses in my imagination totally enhances the experience and makes it real. That gives me such a buzz!

  287. David Brown says

    January 10, 2019 at 1:27 pm

    Waking up, having a cook look out the kitchen window while the kettle boils, watching the birds that are around our block. Just the seeing what the day is. Then sitting back down and reading what’s required for the day. Always have a pad & pen nearby just to write anything that’s I thought of last night or just then. These days just working out our plan to freedom.

  288. Chas says

    The beach for me!

    Collect my 4-legged housemate and off we go.

    Apart from the obvious benefits of fresh air by the water, my favourite part is the joy and optimism exhibited by my furry friend. Watching him bound through the water chasing seagulls is a lesson in persistence and living in the moment.

  292. Wendy Bryan says

    January 10, 2019 at 2:38 pm

    A brisk walk listening to Bon Jovi’s ‘We Wern’t Born to Follow’, It’s My Life and ‘Because We Can’ does it for me. 👍😁🎉

  293. Jeanette says

    January 10, 2019 at 2:44 pm

    Getting up before dawn and doing my morning routine.
    Jumping in the car to head down to Point Leo for my weekly surf; loading the board, the drive down, the anticipation, the excitement of my first view of the waves, paddling out, the waves crashing over me, the exhilaration of catching a wave and being in one with nature.
    Travelling overseas to new destinations; the planning, the nervous energy, the adventure.
    Camping in the Australian wilderness; sitting around a campfire at night, under the magnificence of the star filled skies, just sitting quietly and being.
    Designing a piece of furniture and bringing it to life in my workshop.
    Creating delicious new recipes in the kitchen and sharing the food with family and friends.
    Taking the time to find am]nd buy beautifully made clothing.
    My daily commute to my ‘work’ doing affirmations and visualising my future, ‘imagineering’.
    Spending quality time with my beloved; eating out a great restaurants, planning adventures together, shopping together, discussing our day.
    Seeing my children blossom and head out into the world, learning, making mistakes, growing.
    Possibilities 🙂

    Picture your life a month from today.
    You will overcome your problems and your life will go back to normal, but most of the time it won’t happen overnight.

    It helps to have a long-term perspective to get detached from the overwhelming stress of today.
    I found that daydreaming about my future, about things being normal again, would calm me down.

    Fast forward a month from now. Think about you living a happy, normal life again. It will lift up your spirit, and in no time you’ll be living there once more.

    not doing it for any reward, i dont even recall what reward was by now

    i only remmember it was about what drives me, turns my ON button to feel as if i can do anything, it was impactfull question

    that thing is hard to specifically determine as there are multiple things,
    but i guess communicating with people in my line of work and making them realise what they really want, seeing that glimpse of happiness on their faces in their eyes, its contageous, like drug of some sorts, but its good, for both them and myself
    it truly sparks, and that being part of my job, is just amasing
    knowing people, seeing them happy, content, and smiles on their faces

    What makes me smile, lifts my mood and my energy is when I get home and my retired guide dog black lab Angel comes running down the hall to meet me. Even when her arthritis is playing up, she’s still happy to see me and still hurries to say welcome home! (And where are the treats, I’m a labrador you know!)

  362. Jane says

    January 15, 2019 at 11:27 am

    I’ve been in a funk. Working hard and standing still. I know when I’m doing it because I am watching the clock, waiting to get to the end of it. The hour, the day, the next day. My metaphorical equivalent of dying. (This is not a bad thing, its merely an observation of what is. With this comes awareness)

    SO, I have realised overall, at the general, holistic level that I need refuelling. That I thought, 8 years ago, when life was on and conditioning was a daily ritual, that I had gotten it all. Everything that I had asked for and more.. and that it would keep coming. Now, maybe I could fall into a little bit of spontaneous fun, a day off, laughing and flowing down the click, click, click of synergistic flow where you don’t have to think and it all clicks into place.

    But slowly, insidiously over time, its been getting tougher and things don’t come so easily and direction has been scattered even though I had had it set, there was no passion and no focus and it was getting harder to remember why I was getting up in the morning,

    SO, in earnest I have been filling up, reading, courses, tapes, dusty DVD’s, old, old CD’s and getting together a daily ritual to create and expand, goals, passion and getting back to the basics. It comes in fits and spurts, it only takes a few minutes to read something and my mind jumps to the possibilities and wakes up the resourcefulness that evades so strongly I can barely hold the book for long before I have to do, do do…

    Mood booster and energy push… I feel good, great, when I am living my true self! I feel joy and quick of mind when I see the possibilities and I feel quick of feet when the mind comes alive. There is nothing I cannot do!

    For me to get energised is by paddleboarding on the Swan River or on the Ocean. Watching families muck about in the water full of joy, but then heading out deep so I’m by myself to gather my thoughts and be grateful.

      Year 2019 I have embraced the year to be positive and not negative in my life. Normally I think of rest first and go to bed early to wake up early between 3.00 am to 4.00 am with the firm believe that all my paid working jobs will be done with no stress, and the courage to complete with satisfaction and to whoever I meet on the journey of the day, I will be polite and considerate of others around me.

    Firstly 7-8 hours sleep and meditating and a morning walk lift my energy. Plus when I am walking I usually listening ILRE study materials which make me feel I have done something for myself everyday,

    Secondly taking a proper lunch break and having a short walk after lunch and try to not multitasking at work.

    Lastly allocating time to sit down and talk to my husband and daughter how things are going in our lives.

    Clearing my home of clutter. A neat and tidy space allows me to have space in my mind to tackle challenges without distraction. Completing a project or a simple tasks spurs me on to move onto the next thing, big or little, that I have set for myself to achieve.
    Visualising goals achieved is always a good motivator too.

    January 16, 2019 at 6:48 pm

    I find my energy levels rise when I have found a solution to a pressing problem. Then I can’t wait to implement the fix, often waking early to work out the finer detail.

  381. Garry says

    January 16, 2019 at 7:31 pm

    When I tick a task as completed. Specially if I’ve been pushing it for a while. The best day to me usually during the weekend when I get to my to do list and start ticking boxes as done.

    The biggest energy hit for me is closing a sale…’boom!’ Nothing like it.

    It sounds so unimportant but I thrive on a clean and organised home! Nothing drains my energy more than having to waste my time picking up other people stuff all the time and not getting any of my own to-do list done. When my home is clean I feel empowered to knock over my challenges!

  385. Daniel says

    January 17, 2019 at 2:42 pm

    Different things do it for me, as there are different types of energy.
    For getting energy pumped to work better I like being in the garden for a few minutes, contemplating nature. I realise that after a while I start moving around doing things like pulling out weeds and small things like that, then I know I´m ready to keep going at work.
    For filling up my soul, I like to go out walking at night (especially in these hot summer days). This relaxes me at the same time that I have time to introspect about my life and get inspiration to what needs to be done the next days.

  388. Sue Weatherill says

    January 18, 2019 at 11:17 am

    My energy has been really absent in this heat and I have really noticed it.

    There are a couple of things which have really helped and I am trying to do them daily for the next two months. This is my truth serum and will keep me honest thanks 🙂

    1. Going and doing yoga locally or in my lounge room. Physical act of making space and spending time on me. being active and attentive to myself.
    2. Drinking water .
    3. The above two lead to greater sleep so its a circular discussion

  389. Tiff says

    January 18, 2019 at 11:21 am

    I get totally buzzed by pulling off something I wasn’t sure could happen. Getting buy in from another party, seeing a plan come to fruition, seeing someone I care about succeed. All that gives me a buzz which converts into energy.

    Thanks for the challenge Jon! I personally get a lift out of so many things, and I have a list of things that I love that boost me when I feel I need it! But….if I had to say one thing that absorbs me and gives me energy and lifts me right up….it would be painting….not houses!….art on canvas….I have just finished a portrait of my newest Granddaughter, and I am now currently painting a green and gold dragon….Sounds VERY Australian! Ha Ha! Hope your day is filled with things that make you ‘fly’ as well! Hugs, Barbara xxxxx

    Honestly, my high energy level peaks when I’m angry. I get so much done that it frustrates me because I can’t find that energy level when I’m feeling good, and who wants to be angry all of the time? My most positive choice is reading about someone who has achieved what I’m trying to do. It helps me to know that there are some ordinary people out there having the success I’m looking for and they are not the superhuman, pumped all the time type people. I am reading more and have set reading goals for this year.

  399. Dean says

    January 21, 2019 at 12:09 pm

    Whar lifts my energy is exerice cross fit because its such an awesome group exerice with like minded people lifting each other up and also investment semairs been around peopl that want to grow.

    Meditating gave me energy, it was unreal how subtle the benefits of meditation were but over time when done consistently you could really feel the positive difference.

    After 3 years of meditating I was able to reconnect with my own pure joy in my gut, it was amazing to feel so happy within oneself for absolutely no other reason than just being.

    Then life got in the way and I stopped meditating and have noticed a huge drop in energy since.

    I care for my 90 year old invalid father, raising 5 children and trying to renovate my home that was broken into, so I stopped making time for me.

    2019 is the year that I need to change all that and turn it all back around, meditation time required 🙏🏼🧘🏼‍♀️

  402. Genevieve says

    January 29, 2019 at 11:25 am

    Two things come to mind- practicing Kung Fu & surfing……
    I practice Kung fu twice a week and get a burst of energy and a feeling of a good well worked sore body afterwards, I’ve just made the decision to increase the frequency of my practice sessions. At the moment I rarely go surfing, i need to make this one activity at least a weekly ritual.

    Daily hydration upon waking and committing to stretching wide and proud- realigning the energy flows feels powerful and recharging while listening to the rhythmic sound of the ocean. I love living by the beach

  406. Jennifer says

    January 29, 2019 at 8:45 pm

    One thing that I have noticed that significantly lifts my energy is swimming/ surfing in the ocean or swimming in the ocean pools. I heard once that you can recharge crystals by putting them in the ocean and I totally get it. The buzz you get after being in the ocean is undeniable.

  407. Vee says

    January 30, 2019 at 8:03 am

    Early morning walk for about 30 minutes to an hour and talking to people I meet along the way.

    As soon as I get home, I have breakfast, vegetable or fruit salad, then a piece of bread and coffee. or tea, I always have hot or at least warm drink with my meal (. I was told it is not good to drink cold drink with hot/warm food and you eat your vegetables or any fibrous food before anything else).

    Some days, I water my plants do a bit of weeding and talk to them. Sounds weird but it work. I love my plants just like how other people love their pets.

    I cant look after animals even though I love them, so I have plants instead. By the way people told me I have a “green thumb”. T

  408. Josh says

    January 30, 2019 at 4:02 pm

    I get tonnes of energy in gardens, rainforest and places where there is heaps of trees, shrubs etc. My levels of consciousness goes through the roof. Also when I surf and take moments to be greatful when I’m out there.

  409. Rob says

    January 31, 2019 at 10:42 am

    For me it is and always will be family… and by family – I don’t mean determined by blood.
    I have friends who I class as my family also. The thought of being able to provide for my family or save up to travel and see family gives me an increase in energy to do something better.

  410. Adnan says

    January 31, 2019 at 10:52 am

    Riding Motorcycles gives me that energy.

    Consuming thought provoking articles, books or media content that challenges my thinking makes me realise that there are so many different perspectives.

    Raising my kids and seeing them develop into mini adults gives me Strength

  411. Mark Gardner says

    For me it’s about mellowing out playing trumpet in a 4 piece jazz band playing jazz standards , just chill and create that’s me to a t.

    Ok I’m late coming into this…just packed down our life of 33 years into a small storage shed, said goodbye to 3 of our five kids and moved to New Zealand. We’ve been here for 8 days – hence late arrival into this space…
    ……but still for me – getting up early and tciking a few things of my to do list before the rush hour begins is such an energy boost and a good swim or walk in the outdoors when a lull comes refuels me so I can keep being productive through the day.

  413. Angela Graham says

    February 1, 2019 at 11:08 am

    Getting up in the morning and walking my dog before sitting down to get things done and if I get the chance to go for a coffee with my young adult son my day and my energy are great.

  417. Wojciech says

    February 1, 2019 at 3:22 pm

    I will get my energy levels up! by getting up early in the morning 5-6 AM and start fulfilling my daily tasks from my “to-do-list”, also very important by eating healthy meals during my day, getting fresh air while walking with my dog and observe and listen to the nature overall!!

    My positive thoughts, gym and yoga exercise will fill up my energy bar for the days to come :))

  418. Marie says

    Nia is a wonderful exercise class that I attend that feeds my mind body and soul. It is so joyful dancing along to music in a way that feels good for my body. Getting out of my head and into the body being creative with movement feeds and balances my energy. Creating music to share with others in sound therapy events also gives me energy.

    For me it’s definitely a ‘clean, tidy house.’ We live on a farm and all work/study so it’s not always achievable, so I must stay strong and ensure it gets done every Sat/Sun morning. This ensures I have a productive, happy week.

  431. Jacki says

  434. Richard says

    February 8, 2019 at 1:36 pm

    A swim every morning, not too exhausting to sap energy, but rigorous enough to raise blood flow for 20 mins does the trick.
