What’s Getting in the Way? Check your Energy Influencers

What are Energy influencers?   

Why do they matter?

What difference do they make in my leadership and my life?

Let's start with Energy.

Albert Einstein stood before his colleagues over 100 years ago and, with conviction, declared that everything you see, hear, smell, touch and feel is not matter, it's Energy.  You, as a living being, are vibrating Energy.  This makes Energy your most valuable personal resource. 

You probably gauge Energy use through a physical lens.

You sense when you're energized, fatigued or somewhere in between. And you know that your energy level affects your mood, your perspective and your ability to regulate your emotions and behavior.

Physical is one of the Energy influencers. If you're taking good care of your body through healthy eating, adequate sleep and regular exercise and you're free from injury or illness, your body is more likely to work for you and not against you.

There are, however, five other Energy influencers. The graphic below depicts the six Energy influencers.

If one or more of the influencers is not optimized, an Energy deficit can occur and your performance quality suffers.

Understanding the six Energy influencers, determining which one(s) are affecting you and exploring ways to remove the effects of Energy detractors gives you the power to control your response to the plethora of demands placed on you every day.

Working with Energy influencers is one method I use with clients to help pinpoint and measure needed upgrades for improving their leadership presence.

Imagine what would be different for both you and those you lead, if you added the skill of adjusting your Energy levels to your leadership toolkit.
