How you Manage Your Energy? If you have Energy you are Unstoppable!

[Mohsin Rasool]

Dear Warriors,

Just another day I was having conversation with my buddy about the life of an internet marketer.

I experienced this, that i had many things in my todo list, which needed to be completed,
but the day i tried to manage my energy, i cannot stop myself doing great things:

how one can manage the energy?
Well this is the question I ask you too!
How you do this?

Here is what I have been doing and i suggest the same at my recent blog post
at: Forget about todo list, Manage Your Energy | Mohsin Rasool

1. Stop working in the nights. Yes you can have few days in your month to break
this rule, and do stuff for whole night, as we are used to work on, but this should
not be your lifetime routine...get to work in the day light!!!!

2. Do some exercise everyday....i am talking about morning walk,jogging, or light exercise,
to give your plenty of Energy and Oxygen!

3. Take good food and plenty of water... this is only possible when you work on days..
during night..damn cola abuse our body in night shift.

4. Work in specific time blocks and take short breaks.

5. Work on ONE thing at a time..and do not leave it until you complete it..
you can do this only..if you have plenty of energy in your body, and focus..
which you really can get if you have followed, #1,and #2..yeah exercise and enough sleep!

That is it for now...
I was thinking to expand my Blog post which I referred above..so decided to ask
and post here... now would you please share few tips in this regard..how you make your
day full of energy and feelings of doing something great...how you make and keep yourself
fit while you are on your own in your own internet business?

Best Regards,
Mohsin

I second the exercise point - exercising every day really helps me clear my brain out for some reason.

The hard part is making all of your points a habit.

Eat fruit for breakfast. They are filled
with fluids and charge you up for the
whole day.

The first meal sets the tone for
the rest of the day. If you start the
day off a bad meal-then you're setting
the whole day to be as bad.

I have found out that exercising is REALLY important. I have kept track of my productivity over the last few months, and on the days when I got at least 30-60 minutes of exercise I found that I had so much more energy to do things and it also helps to put you in a more positive frame of mind.

Another thing to note is to have a fairly light mid-day (2nd meal) that is not heavy on carbs. If you eat something heavy then, you go through this carb-induced haze afterwards that makes it a little hard to really focus on things. If you end up feeling tired in the afternoon, it does not hurt at all to either meditate or take a short nap to refresh yourself. You'll be amazed at how much more productive the rest of your day will be by doing that!

Mohsin, thanks for sharing that link to Gary Halbert's letters. GREAT stuff and it still rings true today, he had so much insight into what makes an entrepreneur happy, successful and productive!

Really nice tips! Currently me doing IM work at night and doing studies during day time.

Try fasting and deep breathing exercise.

1. You will definitely need adequate sleep.
2. Exercise - get out your house; don't be holed up in your so called lab. It's killing you.
3. Stay positive - be enthusiastic with your online business. If you're mentally frustrated, that alone will disrupt your energy flow.
4. Have a healthy dietary regime.
5. Make sure you still have your social life.

That's all for now

What's the benefit of fasting though? I thought if you ate food you would have more energy lol.

On a side note, exercising is great! It clears the mind and if you do it on a regular basis you will have much more energy and become less tired while doing tasks.

2 months ago I was doing little to no exercise at all and I was always feeling drained. When it came to playing basketball with my friends I was calling constant time-outs and sitting down because I didn't have enough energy to play on.
But over the past 2 weeks I've played basketball with a mate everyday. Now I hardly get tired while doing IM work, school work, and I'm able to play intense non-stop basketball for hours on end.

Regular exercise, drinking lots of water, and eating good food everyday is crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle IMO.

I wouldn't recommend fasting if you're going to be concentrating on something that requires brain and mental power... Meditation is fine though, it actually works really well in helping you focus.

[Peter Nguyen]

Oh yeh forgot about a good nights sleep, that's pretty important too.

[paulie888]

Solid sleep and exercise are definitely prerequisites, and meditation is the icing on the cake that really supercharges your focus and productivity.

Hi Paul,

Few years ago my buddy , Shariq, shared with me this link, and wow that was life changing.
Gary's Boron Letters series was very influential to me... I read it, then again, and then again.
I created PDF, i printed...and i have it in paper form to read again...First two/three letters about getting your body in shape is so important!....

I am glad you liked it. Let's spread the word Keep sharing!

Here's another tip of mine.
Work in a small block of time - around 25-30minutes. Rest a while then get back to working for another block.

This maintains your productivity throughout the day.

Tyler, I have read that many big-name internet marketers do this, and it's a very efficient way of working that keeps you on task and minimizes distraction.

Tyler it is great habit to develop...but In my experience 30minutes are not that much to build
the momentum. I go for 45min or sometime 90min... as it brings me intense focus..and also it is like parabolic graph...you stat..then your focus and concentration keep growing..you hit the peak..and then it is downward...in my experience in 30 minutes just hit the peak..now you should also enjoy the downward drive..as your mind has really got into the task in hand..it is easy to follow next 15-30 minutes. And i get done more in the last 15 minutes,
than the starting 15 minutes!

Again thanks for the input.

Mohsin
