Fatigue is one of the biggest problems of modern life, but we’re trying to fix that problem in all the wrong ways.

Trying to “get” or “find” energy is like trying to grab a fistful of water. If you want water (energy) to sit in your hand, you have to first create the conditions under which it’s possible — in the case of water, keeping your fingers tightly together and your hand cupped while open will do the trick — but trying to grab the water will not. It’s the same thing with energy.

Energy isn’t something you get or grab, but rather the by-product of certain conditions that allow it to show up in your life. If your health and attitude and body and mind are all aligned in the right way, there’s nothing else for you to do but to feel energized. It’s the natural “side-effect” of a healthy life — it just comes with the territory.

Let’s say you were a swimmer wearing a weight belt and you wanted to increase your time in the 50-yard freestyle. You could spend a lot of effort researching the latest titanium high-tech bathing suit — which might add a second or two to your time — but wouldn’t it be a lot more effective to simply drop the weight belt?

As many of my readers already know, my purpose and passion are to be on the cutting-edge of the finest ideas, practices, and connections in the area of health and wellness — and share what I have discovered with you.

For years, I have searched for tools that can help people to connect more fully and easily with the “life-force” energies that comprise the essential matrix in which human beings function.

Millions of Americans suffer from fatigue. Their energy levels are so low that they require a pot of coffee to crawl out of bed in the morning. When afternoon hits, they begin drinking sugary, caffeine-rich energy drinks to keep up at work. By evening, exhaustion sets in and they go straight to bed, only to repeat the same lethargic process the next day. It’s time for these energy-deprived people to realize that this isn’t how the body was meant to operate.

Your body can produce massive amounts of energy when it is given the right fuel. Once this happens, anything is possible! Your boundless energy will drive life’s most important accomplishments, thoughts, creations, and relationships. The world’s best athletes and business entrepreneurs understand this important fact. High levels of energy have driven their many achievements and gotten them to the top.

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, summer has ended. Vacations are just memories and children are back in school. I hope that after a fun, rejuvenating summer, you are feeling relaxed and energized, ready to create the best fall yet! Let me propose a great exercise to add even more positive energy to your life this fall.

Take a page and divide it in half, length-wise. Label one side Energizers, the other side Energy Zappers. Look at your environment — your home, office, business, closets, yard, neighborhood etc. Write each item down under either energy zappers (the things that deplete your energy) or under energizers, things that give you energy. Yes, some things may be on both lists.
