The Power of Good Energy and Knowing Your “Why”
The Sass Studios team attended Leadercast 2018 in May, and we’re still reaping the benefits. Cecelia was particularly impacted by Dr. Jim Loehr’s talk on pinning down your “why” — as well as the importance of recognizing the way your energy impacts your community and even the world. She’s sharing her favorite lessons from the talk and hopes you’ll be as inspired as she was.
“The two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why.” – Mark Twain
Discover your why
Dr. Loehr encourages you to expand your mind and consider the force behind your happiness. Ask yourself what you want to achieve, and what you desire your purpose on earth to be. What is your why? Where do you put most of your energy?
Einstein once said that nothing moves until energy causes it to move. Get in touch with your energy and understand the power and effect it can have. Align your life and energy with your why to be your best self.
“Abe Lincoln, Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King, were they chasing happiness or were they pushing something with their energy that they believed in their soul had to be done?” – Jim Loehr
Embrace the impact of your energy
Be a good person — your good energy will pour out into other aspects of your life. Your happiness, health and achievements are all centered around the way you treat other people. Do things for other people out of true selfishness and you will feel a sense of achievement. Your goodness is your best self!
“Your energy, which was given to you as a gift of life, is to be given away, not for your own self-interest but to help others. And in doing so, you reach a level of happiness that’s indescribable. Your health blossoms and you start achieving, but you do it for the right reason.” – Jim Loehr
