Energy Review

Energy. We’re all given a finite amount.

It ebbs and flows — but at the end of the day, it’s so personal. And I’ve realized that we need to be thoughtful about how we harness it. I came across a thought exercise to help me understand this better: Energy Review.

  1. What gave me energy?

  2. What drained my energy?

  3. What should I have said no to?

  4. What could have been delegated or eliminated?

I like to do it monthly. It helps me see patterns where I feel full and where I feel empty.

From this, I found I enjoy 1:1/1:few hangouts (group dinners), a novel experience (like a new rooftop or experience), or a creative adventure (seeing a performance, composing music) . Large get-togethers and back-to-back social activities are tiring.

What activates energy in you? What depletes you? ⚡️
