My energy – Your energy - We lead with energy every minute of the day. Ultimately, our energy fuels us when we lead ourselves with a positive and meaningful mindset.
“As we each entered this world, we came forth with our own unique ENERGY. Where we place our energy and how we use our energy is a CHOICE we have the opportunity to make every day.”
– TC&A
In week 1, we mentioned, our ENERGY is the one thing we can influence, choose, connect to and even, regulate. As readers of “Your Choice,” you know well that your energy is at the core of who you are, how you communicate, how you make decisions and how you choose to create meaning and impact in the world. Put simply, but not lightly:
Your energy matters and influences the direction of your life.
Your energy is felt, received and responded to by others, as well. While you are not responsible for how others feel, receive or respond to your energy, it is the conscious choice as a leader, to guide, lead and manage your energy toward the best of outcomes for your own self and everyone you work and live with.
We lead ourselves and our business by TRUSTING the foundation of our CHARACTER. As our client's learn to TRUST their own personal and professional integrity - they experience greater success by staying true to who they are AND through making decisions that are best for their organizations, teams and employees.
We're curious to know, "Do you have a word that is your focus for the 2025 New Year?"
Last week we mentioned the most helpful question to ask when new tasks and responsibilities come up within your team:
is this urgent or is this important?
In fact, that question was posed earlier this year in a cohort we were coaching through The Engagement Blueprint. The question reinforced how important it is to ask – it’s on everyone’s mind when given a new task, project or goal.
It’s likely that most of the work you do is very important. At the same time, it may or may not be urgent. Click here for a quick coaching video on how to discern. Considering the time of day you have your best energy may influence how urgent a certain task, project or goal is. Considering your energy will help you to prioritize so you can utilize your mindset, behaviors and strategy within your peak performance times. (Note: we all have peak performance times.)
