Lighten Your Load – Easy Energy Boost

To perform at our best, we need to maintain our personal integrity and manage our daily commitments. We all have our informal list of things we said we’d do yet haven’t quite gotten around to. When these commitments are broken, they drain our energy and distract our focus and purpose.

Summer is a great time to take personal stock. What’s incomplete in your life? What are all the things you said you’d do but have not done yet? This subconscious list is silently zapping your energy. Incompletions weigh on you whether you are aware of them or not.

Time to shed some light on the load you’re carrying around. Here’s a game plan to restore some of your energy and vitality:

1. List all the things you said you’d do yet have not done. Common examples include:

· Phone calls or emails you need to return

· Conversations you need to have

· Cleaning projects (yard, garage, basement etc)

· Finances

· Unfinished projects at home or work

· Things to research or file

2. Give each item a “by when” date. This is the date you will complete the item.

3. Note any requests you need to make in order to complete an item.

4. Go to work on your list.

Watch what happens as you complete the items on your list. You will begin to experience more energy and feel a bit lighter. What are you waiting for – lighten your load!
