Why are they always energised?
Aug 12, 2024Did you ever wonder why some people seem to buzz with endless energy to give and give and give?
Are they just super exceptional, unachievably high energy special people? Of course not!
It’s more likely that they’ve taken a classic truism to heart. They’ve learned to fill their own cup every day, so they have plenty to share.
Have you?
It’s super-important, even if it does sound like a cliché out of every self-help article you’ve ever read! But trust me, there’s real magic in it. After all, we have clichés for a reason: They’re usually true to an extent, and this one definitely is.
- It’s all about giving yourself the love and care that you need before you can support or help anyone else.
- It’s about honoring your spirit and your body with healthy habits and prioritizing your own needs.
- It’s about realizing that no one has endless resources, and that you’ve got to keep putting gas in your tank or you’ll stall out on the side of the road.
When you take care of your body, mind, and spirit, you’re more likely to wake up feeling energized and excited for the day ahead. When your cup is full, you have plenty to offer others, and you want to spread it like confetti on everyone around.
Sounds great, right? But how do you do it? Simple!
Take these steps to heart – and always believe that you are worthy of all the positivity and support you try to give to others. 🩵
- Feed Your Mind… Start your morning with a daily affirmation. Pause for mindfulness or meditation. Read, listen, and develop new skills and creative projects. Whenever negative self-talk starts, nip it in the bud: “Not today, thank you!”
- … And the Rest Will Follow. Give your body the proper nutrition it needs and deserves. Challenge it with exercise on a regular basis. Allow it proper rest every night. And don’t forget to have fun!. Laughter really is the best medicine.
- Soul Time: What fills your heart with peace and joy? Whether it’s a walk in nature, quiet moments with your thoughts, or enjoying art – make time for what sets your soul at peace.
- Connect and Recharge: Surround yourself with people who lift you higher and make you laugh until your cheeks hurt. Meaningful connections are like food for the soul!
- Set Those Boundaries: Know your limits and respect them. Saying no isn’t a bad thing. It’s about protecting your precious time and energy.
- Celebrate You: Every little win deserves a high-five. Celebrate your achievements, big or small. You’re amazing, and you deserve to cheer yourself on.
- Attitude of Gratitude: Being grateful every day keeps you focused on all the amazing stuff already in your life. And that feeds your desire to get and give more.
- Ask for Help: Are you an island unto yourself? No one is, so don’t be shy about seeking mentors or guidance. It’s a sign of strength to ask for help, not weakness.
Filling your cup is an ongoing adventure, something we have to do all the time throughout life. And isn’t that incredible? It’s not a chore – it’s an endless process of giving gifts to yourself, of loving and caring for yourself to enrich your life and the lives of those around you.
Remember, if your cup is empty, you have nothing to share with anyone else!
