Energize!

Here is my very favorite quote on enthusiasm: ”Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic.”

-Dale Carnegie

Take responsibility for “energizing” what you do and it will actually give you energy back!  Whether it is your job, a business meeting, a project for your kid’s school- don’t be negative about it or you will feel drained.

Are you thinking, “How can I put energy into something when I feel bored and disinterested?”

Try these quick tips:

Tip 1

Think of these “enthusiastic” words: excited, energized, great , SO good, REALLY like…, FUN

Figure out a way to apply these words to what you are doing. Take a lesson from the famous fish marketplace in Seattle where the guys who work there have make up games and a show of enthusiasm for what they do that is infectious. Watch this video of these guys.

Hey- if these guys can make it fun to work around smelly fish all day, you can “energize” what you do! RIGHT?

Tip 2

Identify what things you are energized about and think of a way to apply this energy to other areas of your life. For example, I love music, but am not fond of folding laundry. If I listen to music when doing chores, it makes the chores so much more fun. This is key to personal development.

Tip 3

Try to surround yourself by people who are like-minded and affirming. Being around negative people is draining.

Tip 4

Humor. Seeing the funny side of things is a great way to energize your life.

Today- shift your focus to being energized and see how much better your day goes!
