Ten seemingly innocent habits that quietly drain your energy

Ever have one of those days where the energy just isn’t there?

One big realisation over years of ups and downs running my business was how vital energy maintenance was.

Not skill, not talent, not ideas or connections.

Energy.

It took self-awareness to see that even subtle things can block off energy.

Here are ten habits I now actively avoid to keep my energy high:

Criticising others.

Criticising others is you hurting you.

Because we’re all connected — you didn’t get the memo?

Chill on bringing others down, and your energy will return like a Tesla battery.

Taking unhelpful thoughts seriously.

Thoughts come and go like tides.

You can’t escape them, but you don’t need to jump in because you’ll get pulled out to sea.

Learn to let go of those thoughts that make you feel bad.

They never help.

Lack of sunlight on skin.

Fear-mongering about getting in the sun was misguided.
