Mindful Monday - Using Your Energy

About This Talk

Chris looks at the energy each of us wakes up with and the choices we make about where it goes. Giving too much to things that don’t need or deserve it, like negative talk, gossip or chaos, leaves less for what gives a greater return. His challenge for the week is to become more aware of where your time and energy are going.

Key Ideas

• Each morning you start with a day’s energy and decide which topics, events, people and activities receive it.
• Negative speak, gossip and chaos take time and focus away from things that give a greater return.
• Giving energy to something means giving it a piece of yourself, so decide how much it deserves and where it’s better spent.

“When you give energy to something, you’re actually giving a piece of you to it, and the question is how much do you want to give.”
