Creating a life of abundant energy

"The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself,
the more energy you will have."
~Norman Vincent Peale~

The quality of your life is a function of the quality of your choices. And, among our most important choices are the choices that impact our energy. You can dramatically increase your energy by asking whether an action you are about to take will add energy or subtract energy. "Will eating this food add energy?" "Will being around this person add energy?" "Will having these thoughts add energy?" Every single thing that we do either adds energy or subtracts it. Increasing your energy will help you to perform better in every aspect of your life.

Energy is the essence of our being. And, it is exciting to read about the new discoveries as to the many dimensions of our lives that impact our energy, and therefore our wellness. Leading the way in piecing together a holistic approach to personal energy management is Dr. Judith Orloff. Her work is a brilliant blend of mainstream medicine (she is a medical doctor as well as psychiatrist) and the emerging scientific understanding of energy. Her new book, Positive Energy, 10 Extraordinary Prescriptions for Transforming Fatigue, Stress and Fear into Vibrance, Strength & Love, is an absolute must read. It has become the book that I give out most often to clients and friends. This is a book that is so powerful that you will feel wonderful every time that you give it as a gift.

Speaking of energy, if you haven't yet watched the short video featuring Tony Melendez and Pope John Paul II take just five minutes, right now, to get energized by watching this powerful video. Then when you are ready, read my prescription for creating a life of Abundant Energy so as to tide yourself over until you get Judith Orloff's life changing book.

Just imagine if every person did even one act of kindness every day. At Quantum Leap Strategies, we are trying to start a wave of kindness that circles the globe and leads to more peace in the world. Register your act of kindness in our Kindness Journal. Every month, we select one act of kindness to feature in this newsletter. This month's selection:

Take the time to seriously help someone who has lost their job
to find their next one. For most, the loss of a job is both
a significant financial and emotional burden.

Congratulations to Robert Tormey who wins a Kindness Wave T-shirt and Wayne Dyer's CD "101 Ways to Transform Your Life" for her thoughtful kindness. Of course, everyone who did an act of kindness is a winner. Thanks to all for helping start a wave of kindness from our site.

Another way to make someone's day is to send one of our free inspirational eCards.
