Your energy is key now “In these times.” That’s what the radio announcers and broadcasters like to say. “In these uncertain times,” or “These unprecedented times.” Yeah, yeah, yeah, heard a million times.
Your Energy is Key Now, Right Now, More Than Ever
The question is, “What do I do?” “What do we do in these times in this situation?” “Where do I go what’s supposed to happen?” Well, that is a lot of questions and I don’t have any specific answers for you. Except for one very important statement. Energy is key.
You see those questions I ask about a moment ago they lack energy. They are like a rudderless ship casting about with neither a compass nor a sail. The energy that goes into the smallest efforts that you undertake at these times. That’s the place you see energy, positive energy, is one of the most important elements you can have in your life.
The Kids in The Hall Made Fun of it Years Ago
Ask anybody you want to be around the positive person or you want to be around the dour and sour person. People want to talk about the negative it’s a natural defense mechanism. It’s something that is kind of built into us, but it’s also made fun of.
If I could reach back years and years ago there was a great TV show called, The Kids in the Hall. You may be familiar with it. It was a comedy troupe out of Canada. One of the skits they would do was an office skit. The guys would dress in drag and pretend to be office administrators. Invariably the episodes began with, “Oh it’s a Monday, Oh I know Monday’s.” That’s bad energy. But we know that and yet we still can make fun of it because, well it continues.
Look here’s the deal, fake it. Shower on time, shave, put on your good clothes, clean whatever you need to clean. Put as much order into your life as you can. Keep the positive energy. Because even though you may be faking it makes a profound and final difference in how you live your life.
A Simple Action That Sets Your Sails
Stop waiting for things to get better. Simply do this, fake it. The positive energy. You’ll soon begin to believe it and so will your body. You’re going to find yourself in an extraordinary position of seeing the world as potential and not a negative stasis. A world we have to exist in that stasis and wait for somebody to put a compass or rudder and sail on our own personal ship.
