This is how I manage my energy. I'm an introvert, and it's important to me that I can move through the world with the appropriate amount of energy, so I actually can take that, um, quite a bit. Number one, sleep. I want to make sure I get enough sleep. I could do better on that for sure, but I do try. Number two is creating time for those things that matter.
So, um, the things that matter to me are spending time with family, spending time in nature, spending time exercising. And for me, the way to execute all of those is in the calendar, and therefore they're going to happen. And I find with a combination of those things, I'm able to manage my energy pretty well most of the time.
How about you?
