ONE of the most frequently asked questions to me is, ” How can you complete so many tasks successfully in a short time?” “Is there any secret in your time management?” I smiled and answered: “Yes, the secret in time management is energy management”.
Yes, energy is everything. When it comes to your productivity, your energy is vital to focus, have a clear mind, and solve the challenges efficiently. Think about this: If you feel a lack of energy (aka tired), will you be able to complete your task efficiently? Or you will drag your body and slowly pick it up one by one?
I know you understand what I am trying to illustrate to you right now. The question is: How do you level up your energy?

Let’s explore these six critical factors:
1) What you feed your body is so crucial for your energy. Overeating carbohydrate-dense food such as bread, noodles, rice doesn’t serve well for your energy. All these starchy food makes you feel even more tired. Getting the right source of food that is high in good quality protein, vitamins and minerals is the right way to boost your energy.
2) 95% of the substances in contact with your skin are absorbed into your bloodstream. Do you know they are so many synthetic chemicals that are hidden inside your daily self-care products (shampoo, toothpaste, moisturizer, sunblock, and many more) that are toxic to your body? These toxic chemicals can cause you to feel tired.
3) When your body is loaded with toxic chemicals, your liver, kidney, and lymphatic system need to do extra work to detoxify the toxic from your body. Lymphatic systems do not have a pump like your heart; you need to move your body to move the lymph fluids. You can achieve it by spending just 5 minutes doing it the right way in the morning. You can discover it later.
4) Sleep is always my favourite topic. Do you know your brain function slows down by 30% when you sleep less than 90 minutes the previous night? Your reaction also slows down by 30%. These are all based on scientific research. Having a good night’s sleep is crucial to having a refreshed mind and aliveness the next day. Do you have a good night’s sleep? If you don’t, read on. Discover great ways to wind down your day to set yourself up for good sleep. For example: avoiding the blue light emission from your electronic devices and avoiding caffeine intake 6 hours before your sleep is beneficial. Why 6 hours before your sleep? Check it out later.
5) Now, chronic stress can kill you. No joke. I mean it. I nearly died due to chronic stress over 15 years. Chronic stress can spike up your cortisol hormone and make you always fight or flight mode.
6) Finally, your relationship with those around you is closely linked to how you feel. Do you feel energetic and excited when you meet up with your loved one or a gathering that you are looking forward to? Poor relationships with people around you can make you feel lonely and lack energy. You can always deepen your connection with others by genuinely connecting with them.
