Don’t Hold Back!
Children also allow excitement to take over their whole bodies… because they have not yet learned how to hold back their excitement – they have not yet been conditioned out of their natural enthusiasm.
Allowing ourselves to deeply and completely FEEL happiness, excitement, enthusiasm is SO important and healthy!
Yet we often hold back because we don’t want to look foolish, childish or stupid. Right?
But what if we need that energy in our bodies, in our minds, in our hearts in order to move on what’s important to us.
Consider that one of the reasons we find it hard to have the energy to put our goals, dreams and passions into action is because we don’t let ourselves feel it. We don’t let ourselves experiences that excitement, that enthusiasm for charging our batteries!
It sounds simple. But today’s guide will help you ground it in a practical daily skill 👍

2 Steps for More Energy and Authentic Enthusiasm
Getting your hopes, your energy and your Spirits UP 💫 isn’t ~~~~as tough as it sounds…
- Let yourself think about what it is that you do really want. Bring it to mind and just spend a few moments thinking about the details.
- For example: If what you want is a vacation to Hawaii – think about how long, what are you going to do, where will you go, etc.
- Or: If you want to start working out regularly – think about when in the day, what kind of exercise, what you’ll need, etc.
- Or: If you want to get married – think about your wedding day, think about the kind of person you’re marrying, think about your life together.
- Now it’s time to let yourself FEEL what you really want. If you KNEW YOU COULD NOT FAIL… if what you wanted was GUARANTEED… how excited can you let yourself get? Let yourself feel for at least 17 seconds what it would FEEL like if what you want was a reality right now. Feel it. Let a smile show up on your face. Let it relax and drop your shoulders. Let it relax and energize your entire body.
- Repeat! Whenever you want more energy, more joy, more courage for moving forward, consider feeling what it will feel like when it’s a reality! And it’s true… we can’t control this life… you might not get what you want… but this energy and experience will support you in creating MORE in your life… and having MUCH MORE HAPPINESS long term.
