How to Energy-Broker Your Way to Confidence

Hi there, Vixens! Today, we're diving into a topic that's like a secret code to unlocking a whole new level of living: energy and confidence management. This blog is a part of the series in which I take a deep dive into the pillars I coach my clients on here at Vixen Gathering. Picture this: think of me as your energy broker, dealing out tips and insights that'll skyrocket your energy levels and confidence like never before.

Embracing Your Inner Energy Broker

Everyone always talks about time management, right? But for me, time management is really managing your energy. And I've joked for years that I'm an “energy broker.” Imagine you're in this bustling marketplace of life. Your energy is the currency, and you're the broker. Your job? To make shrewd decisions about where to invest that energy so you get the best returns. Just like a savvy stock trader, you're gonna learn how to manage your energy portfolio and ensure it's diversified and thriving. Sound intriguing? 

Cracking the Code

Picture this: you're on fire, zestfully tackling tasks, and exuding vibes that practically make the sun shine brighter. Cut to those times when you're sapped, struggling even with the smallest chores. These are the clues we need for our energy audit. I'm talking about figuring out what fuels you and what drains you.

Take, for instance, those tasks that make you want to jump out of bed, and compare them with the ones that have you hitting snooze. Those zest-filled tasks? They're like energy deposits in your account. But those energy-draining ones? Well, they're like sneaky energy bandits. Our mission is to identify those bandits and show them the door.

Awareness is 50% of the battle. We all have those days where it feels like somebody just put an IV in you and sucked your blood out, right? So if you have one of those moments, pay attention to what you were just doing. Or if you have one of those days where you're just like, “This is the best day ever, I feel amazing,” pay attention. What happened that day?

Unleashing the Magic of To-Do Lists for Mega Productivity

Hold on to your pen, because we're about to give your mighty to-do list a total makeover. Ever heard of the Rule of Six? Picture this: it's a bright morning, and you've got this concise list of six tasks—no more, no less. This isn't just any list; it's a gateway to a world of focus and accomplishment.

I'm channeling my inner John D. Rockefeller with this one; even he used this method! See, the magic isn't in the sheer number of tasks but in the quality of focus you can give to each. Dive into one task, own it, and then glide to the next. Any unfinished tasks? They're not left hanging; they simply make a graceful transition to the next day's list. Plus, here's a gem: separate your work and personal tasks. It's like setting up energy firewalls that protect your focus.

Shedding Baggage, Elevating Confidence

Now, let's talk about confidence, shall we? Imagine your life is this magical attic, filled with all sorts of stuff—some valuable, some... not so much. Similarly, our lives gather tasks that either elevate or drain our confidence. It's time for a decluttering session.

Start by identifying those energy vampires—the tasks that not only suck your energy but also chip away at your confidence. Next? It's time to Marie Kondo your life. If a task doesn't spark joy and align with your strengths, it's out. And guess what? Liberating yourself from these tasks? It's like a confidence-boosting makeover for your life.

Embracing Gratitude and the Art of Letting Go

On my journey to energy and confidence mastery, two trusty companions have been gratitude and surrender. Imagine each morning is like a blank canvas, and you're holding the brush. The strokes you paint are expressions of gratitude for the blessings in your life. This simple act sets the tone for a day (and life) full of joy.

And let's talk surrender. It's not about giving up; it's about releasing the need to control everything. Imagine you're in a canoe, going downstream. Fighting the current is exhausting. Surrendering means letting the river carry you, finding moments to rest, recharge, and glide along with ease. It's like an energy massage for your soul.
