Who Stole Your Energy?
Yepp, you read it right. There are such things as energy-stealers, or we can call them drainers. It could be people, habits, chores, things, or places.
In my coaching sessions, I've been asked many times:
Adele, What do you do to prepare for 2024?
Me: My main reflection is around my energy. So I do an energy audit.
And since it landed very well with whom I shared it with, I'll share it with you too.
So... I believe that you can have almost everything right. Such as:
✅ The right goals.
✅ The right intentions.
✅ The right actions.
✅ The right books.
✅ The right plan.
✅ The right schedule.
✅ The right ... you name it.
But if you are in the wrong environment, or have habits that don't serve you, it will steal you from reaching your full potential and achieving peak performance in all of the above.
It’s Near-Impossible to Thrive in the Wrong Environment — Don’t Stay There
And this is 100% within our control.
I can choose who I spend time with. Whom I allow into my space.
I can also choose what I do, where I go, and my habits.
And with an energy audit, you can identify and address who and what drains your energy, and who and what gives you energy. It will have a huge impact on your life.
Just like a sun-loving plant, that just to be happy and bright, stuck in the cold, dark shade would eventually be sad and wilted.
People feel the same way in the wrong place. They need the right spot to be happy and grow, just like plants need sun to thrive.
So how does an energy audit work? I use a tool that I learned from Master coach Rich Litvin and I'll share it with you today. --> You can download the PDF here.
First, I invite you to take some time to do this. Find a peaceful place undisturbed.
If you need to do a quick meditation to get present, do that.
1️⃣ Make a list of all the people, places, and things in your life that fill you with energy. Add to the list any habits or rituals you have that energize you.
2️⃣ Make a list of all the people, places, and things in your life that drain you of energy. Add to the list any habits or rituals you have that exhaust you.
Ask yourself these questions:
Which item is the most energy drainer? That would make a domino impact on your life.
Can it be reduced, eliminated, or delegated? Or change to make less energy drainer
Which one gives you more energy? Can we do more of them? Is it something we need to start if you haven't yet?
Buying Yourself Means Saying Yes to You.
And No to everything that does not serve you. Such as energy drainers.
The coolest part of it all.
When you identify and let go of energy drainers, you make space for something new.
If you understood this exercise right, something new will be an energy filler that will add even more value to your life.
What if, in 2024, we exchange all ( or most of ) the space we allow energy draining to happen, with energy-filling things, people, and habits?
Can you imagine how different, more fulfilling, and joyful your life would be?
How much more you would experience?
How much more you would accomplish?
And all this with ease and flow... just as it should be.
If you want to fly - give up everything that weighs you down.
Let's take on the challenge to stop and think - what/who do you need to eliminate from your life going into 2024?
