The Experience Life staff spent yesterday at an all-day planning meeting in Wisconsin. I always look forward to these days because they inevitably mean amazing food, great ideas, inspiration and collaboration.During the meeting, Pilar asked us to think about what energizes us most in our lives and at work -- and what depletes us. I've been turning over this idea in my head a lot lately, and it's definitely something I'll be thinking about this weekend.
I know there are quite a few areas in my life that are costing me (screen time, toxic people, bad habits) -- and places that I want to nourish more (especially in the realm of creativity and fun).
Just thinking about what the elements in my life are actually accomplishing -- i.e., nurturing my authentic self or sucking me dry -- feels like a big step in the right direction. I suppose the next big challenge will be learning how to accomplish the necessary changes with integrity.
What about you: When you picture your happiest and most balanced self, what is it that adds to that energy and spark? And what in your life is diminishing or distracting you from that core?
