After spending a few days tired, depressed, or apathetic, everything slows down. Compare that situation to the days when you are feeling full of life and excited. You tick off several items on your to-do list when you are energized. Therefore, if you want to accomplish your goals, you should harness as much energy as you can.

If you are stressed and tired, there is no way you can optimize your time. No matter what you do, there is a high chance you will only work at 50% efficiency. Some actionable ways of caring for your body include:

• Getting at least seven hours of sleep daily
• Eat energizing foods like whole grains, lean proteins, and vegetables
• Keep off energy-draining foods like high-sugar and fatty snacks
• Exercise at least 30 minutes daily
• Get ten minutes of quiet time
• Stretch your muscles

When life gets busy and you run into an energy drain, you need more than a balanced diet to stay on track. Thankfully, there is a host of supplements and vitamins you can use to increase your energy. They include purblack shilajit, Ashwagandha, Rhodiola Rosea, CoQ10, and Vitamin B12. Shilajit is a powerhouse of biologically active substances that the body quickly assimilates. The potential benefits of purblack shilajit include tissue repair, emotional balance, optimizing physical performance, suppresses inflammation, and supports energy production in the body.

What is better than taking a warm bubble bath after a long week or cuddling on the couch in the evening? Well, not many things can surpass such comfort. The problem is that many people, especially introverts, are often overly attached to feeling safe and warm. Eventually, they are unable to step out of their comfort zone. Unfortunately, your goals require you to do more than sit on the couch and get cozy. Remember that sticking to your comfort zone will not change anything five years from now.

When you feel like you have to do something, you may not have the energy to achieve the goal. Avoid getting caught up in this feeling because it will drain your energy. Every time the idea that you must do something creeps into your mind, stop and appreciate that you have a choice. For instance, you don’t have to go to work. You have a choice, and you are opting to go to work because you want to pay your bills. Apply this principle to your life’s angles by recognizing that you have a choice and the “have-to’s” are self-imposed.

Negative thoughts can be hard to slow down. Your brain is naturally predisposed to pessimism. If you want to attract good things in your life, you must leave room for self-reflection and positive thoughts. Stop looking for bad news or exaggerating the challenges you face. For instance, if you spill coffee in the morning, your day will not get worse. View the situation individually instead of grouping all challenging events. Consider setting aside an hour in a day for worrying, complaining, and whining. Unless it’s within this hour, you shouldn’t entertain negative thoughts. That way, you can use the other 23 hours to experience joy and positivity.

Many people feel tired and lack the energy to function at their best. If you are always energy-drained, consider examining your lifestyle and determining necessary healthy changes to boost your energy levels. The five tips are a good starting point. You can also take a break from life’s daily stress and relax by playing on.
