How to maximize energy?

Energy is the fuel of life. The more fuel we have, the more that we can accomplish in life. Children have a nearly endless amount of energy. However, as we grow older we lose a lot of the energy and enthusiasm of our youth. That is not an inevitable course, however. There are so many ways we can bring back our old energy, or increase our energy from where we are now, so that we can accomplish so much more in life. On the one hand, we can learn how to avoid wasting our energies. For example, certain life activities (even ones considered normal) deplete us of energy. If we can reduce such activities, then our energy will increase. nMore positively, we can increase our energy a number of ways. For example, we can develop a real aspiration in life; we can learn something new or gain a new skill. Likewise, we can create energy for ourselves by shifting our focus away from our own selves in conversations to the other person's thoughts, concerns, and points of views. This energizes and invigorates us, and, interestingly, also creates a sense of peace within us. nnFew strategies to maximize your energynnIncrease your aspiration in life nEnergy is a product of one's will. The more will the more energy. But what creates will in life? It is created by your aspirations in life. Whenever you aspire for something it creates the will that energizes. nnDevelop, commit, and organize a new endeavornIf you decide that you want to undertake a new endeavor, such as a new project or a new business venture, great energy will be required on your part. If however, you are able to think out clearly what you want, commit to it, and work out the specific details (i.e. organize your vision and goals), you will see your mental energy grow, which will then be followed by a rise in your vital/emotional energy and will, and then your physical energy, giving you the necessary propulsion to see your endeavor through to great success. nnLearn a new skill or nichenWhenever you learn something new, you will feel energy flowing into yourself. If you implement the new skill or knowledge in your life, you will also feel a fresh surge of energy and enthusiasm. Think about something new you want to learn that's important to your work or your personal life. Then take it up in full. You'll see your energy shoot up. nnPrioritize life activitiesnSometimes we spread our energy across too many activities and interests in our lives causing us to have less than enough energy for the most important things. Try to evaluate which items in your life takes the highest priorities, and devote more of your energy towards these, and less to those of less importance. nnDevelop positive attitudesnIt's always best to have a generally positive attitude. A positive attitude attracts positive circumstances and fortune in our lives and at the same increases our energy. Having a negative attitude attracts the opposite. Worry, anxiety, fear, anger, depression, restlessness, impatience, etc. are inborn, primal negative attitudes that deplete one's energy. nnOvercoming fatigue by eliminating unwillingnessnEnergy in essence comes from the will of one's being. If one has the will, there will be energy. If one doesn't have the will, energy will be blocked -- e.g. one can become tired. If one is tired in life one needs to consider if one is resisting the work we are involved with in some way; where the will is in essence is opposition to the work; i.e. we are unwilling to do the work. Overcoming this unwillingness will release energy and overcome such tiredness. nnShift your focus to othersnA related way to increase your energy is at any moment in time to shift your focus from yourself to those around you. As you do this, you will feel the eagerness, strain, or flatness related to your own self-focus to be replaced by an ease, energy, and joy of your focus to those around you. Moreover, others around you are more likely to respond positively to you, giving you even more energy! nnGive up an opinionnWhat applies to a negative attitude also applies to an overly held opinion. Throw the attitude or opinion away. Discover the truth in the very opposite attitude expressed by someone you vehemently disagree with. Energy will pour into your mind. nnSpeak less, speak softlynHere is an unusual way to create energy that is guaranteed to work. Instead of verbalizing everything in your mind, hold the thoughts to yourself. Do not speak them out. After a while you'll notice that your energy is replenished. Likewise if you speak softly and avoid speaking loudly you will also notice that your energy will not be depleted. We cannot say enough on how important these two points are! nnChange a habitnChanging any common habit or activity can also increase one's energy. Take any simple physical habit such as brushing your teeth, eating, or writing a letter. Try to become conscious of every thought, feeling, sensation, and movement which arises when you express the habit. Now change the way you do it. Break the habitual movements. Think, feel and do it differently. Energy will surge through your nerves. nnEnergy wasting activitiesnThere are a number of activities in life that deplete one's energies. Many of us accept them as a normal part of life. However, many things can wear you out, drain your emotions, or cloud your mind. Think about some of the items you are doing that are depleting you of your physical, emotional, or mental energy Then try to cut back in these areas wherever possible. Also: n1. Reduce stress through one's psychological techniques (e.g. staying calm at all times, not being reactive, putting aside quiet time for rest, relaxation, reflection, meditation, etc.) n2. Eat right, exercise regularly. nnHidden deflators of energynThere are some other very unusual, hidden ways that energy can get depleted. For example, one individual went to a funeral, where the atmosphere and consciousness was low, where the energy was somehow deflating, even if people were not conscious of the fact. When he arrived back from the funeral and touched his computer, it would not function. This is an example of how something outside, a person, a gathering, or some other force can secretly be debilitating and reducing the energy surrounding it, which can enter people, who when they interact with something else spread this unseen debilitation of energy. One can also feel depleted of energy if someone has a hostile will toward you, or is untruthful toward you, or is disorganized in their thoughts, or is expending the wrong type of energy, etc. nnhttp://humanscience.wikia.com/wiki/Energy_accomplishes n
