The Energy Project ~ Tony Schwartz
Defined in physics as ‘the capacity to work,’ energy comes from four main wellsprings:
HOW DO YOU WORK BEST?
• Morning person or night owl?
• What do you love to do vs procrastinate on?
• Collaboration or Solo?
• What inspires or motivates you?
• What takes the wind out of your sails?
• How do you stay connected?
Where do you need support?
LISTEN & REFLECT
• What’s coming to mind?
• Get clear & make it a priority.
“How can I best take care of myself the best way I know how?”
Where can I let the pressure out?
Create time for serendipity.
