Sowing the Seeds: Week 2 – Energy, by Tatiana – In The Mix #34

One of the most profound lessons I learned in college, came from a biology class. As I drifted off into my imagination, my teacher delivered the class notes in an unexciting, monotone voice. As the topic switched to the laws of thermodynamics, the first law blew me away: “Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.”

Wow!

My eyes lit up as I sat at full attention and pondered the statement. My whole being was transformed into a state of epiphany. I had a spiritual moment and sense of enlightenment. Instead of thinking of physics and biology, I automatically thought of the creation of life and the transfer of moods and state of beings.

How many times have you woke up late, got cut off driving, then arrive at work to find a catastrophe waiting on your desk? The chain of events are enough to shift your energy and affect the energy of those around you.

I tend to be a pretty upbeat person with my mind set on high standards, that some may view as lofty. I strongly believe that surrounding yourself with positive people, situations, etc will help your quality of life and ensure your energy is not drained with minutia. I know there are many types of activities that release endorphins and get that positive energy flowing, marathons and creating art are some of my vices. In the last few weeks, the developments stemming from my latest business venture has done a significant job at improving my energy. It’s euphoric and quite contagious!

Setting my goals, creating my business plan, and establishing business alliances, have helped me get other areas in my life in order. I have a new outlook on life and have gotten very excited about existing projects that have been on the back burner. Just writing this now, is getting my energy pumped!
