So I spent some hours on my own reflecting on what is present when I have more energy – people, places, type of work, where, when, how. And similarly for when I have less energy or feel drained.<\/p>\n
And we really know! We really know when we feel good, with who, doing what and in what way.<\/strong> And we really know when we feel bad too. Or worse than we usually do. BUT – we seldom or never stop to reflect. And that\u00b4s what I want to help you with.\u00a0To regain or to raise your energy awareness!<\/strong><\/p>\n Below are a few great questions to help you – and the key here is to keep going.<\/strong> Doing this will significantly raise your energy awareness – your understanding of where you gain, have and feel energy and where you lose, lack and feel a lot less of it.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n And when you combine this understanding with designing your business and your life accordingly it will make a huge impact on both!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n What have you got to lose testing it out? Questions to raise your energy awareness:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Energising – when do you feel most alive at work right now?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Energising – when have you felt most alive at work in the past?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Draining – when do you feel least alive at work now?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Draining – when have you felt least alive at work in the past?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Energising – when do you feel most alive socially?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Energising – when have you felt most alive socially in the past?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Energising – which places energises you?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Draining – which places drains you?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Generally, when do you feel most alive (any other aspects you want to add)?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Generally, when do you feel least alive (any other aspects you want to add)?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which positive changes have you seen recently that has raised your energy?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What are you truly grateful for in your work and in your life?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What gives you the strongest sense of meaning and purpose in your work?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What gives you the strongest sense of meaning and purpose in my life?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which adjustments can you make at work to have a lot more energy – clients you work with, colleagues, meetings you go to, networking, parties and dinners you attend etc etc.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which adjustments can you make socially to have a lot more energy?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which adjustments can you make else in your life to have a\u00a0lot more energy?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There is the aspect here of courage and being true to yourself. The more clearly you see what drains you and what energize you, you will only lift your energy significantly when you follow through and let these be great insights and advice on how to do your work and how to live your life.<\/strong><\/p>\n And of course – sometimes things are out of our control.<\/strong> But many many things are<\/em> in our control. And even those things outside our control we can impact somehow by how we choose to interact with it. The degrees of engagement, presence, friendliness and etc.<\/p>\n I hope you find this article useful, that you spend some time raise your energy awareness signficantly – and that you implement some of this in your work and life and start to feel the early spring growing on the inside.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\nOr feeling drained or like we\u00b4re leaking energy.<\/p>\n
\nKeep adding and make the list long long long. And then when you\u00b4ve done that for a couple of hours, see what patterns you see. And then continue again tomorrow or in a couple of days. Adjust and add to the list.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/coachingpartner.net\/cp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/cam-adams-235137-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\")
