What are you giving energy to?
This summer I wanted to recognize what I am giving energy to, especially when it comes to the goals that I have set for the summer. In my previous article 'My Summer '19 Goals' I discussed the four goals I have this summer.
My goals included saving more money, building my professional network, writing more, and donating to others.
My day to day looks a little bit like this:
I wake up around 7:00 am, I do my morning routine, I work out (at least three days a week), I network on Instagram and send emails, then I go to work. After work, I typically take my time to write and read, or complete a project I have been working on that day.
I spend time giving my energy to my goals because I know they will benefit me later. When I begin focusing on other things or people that misalign with my goals or my path, I feel myself begin to become less determined and unfocused and I don't see results in what I am looking to grow in.
I believe that energy will feed off of other energies. It is simply the 'Law of Attraction' when you think about it because what you are putting out into the world will attract itself to you.

This is true, if I spent most of my time with people who are not into building their career or are more focused on going to movies than the gym, I wouldn't be motivated to focus on those things.
Something I give energy to is being myself in every situation is that I am not one to follow the crowd or seek what others are doing. It doesn't appeal to me.
With that being said, I give energy into being different and authentic to myself. I have never craved acceptance from others. Hence, I attract others who are the same and I attract situations that basically force myself to be on my own doing what comes naturally to me.
Like everything, it is important to know your boundaries in what you are allowing yourself to give energy to. Since I have goals, I put my energy into those goals and I put my energy into them consistently.

"Don't adapt to the energy in the room. Influence the energy in the room" - unknown.
I like to be aware of the kind of energy I am putting out into the world because I notice the energy of others.
Since I am the kind of person who enjoys being on my own, I seek to exude authenticity, honesty, integrity, and compassion.
With this, I become attracted to many people with the same energy that I am accustomed to. It's such an innate action that I barely even notice it because it happens so naturally.
When I connect with someone who has a positive energy that matches my own, I feel most myself. I feel aligned with who God intends for me to be.
