Nugget: “The first requisite for success is the ability to apply your physical and mental energies to one problem incessantly without growing weary.” ~ Thomas A. Edison, inventor and businessman
Reflection drill
You’re a person, not a machine. Don’t expect your body to go nonstop without proper care and maintenance. Ok, so a machine needs those, too. But a car’s engine can run on oil alone. A human requires much more complex levels of fuel to sustain high level thinking and productivity. A healthy lifestyle makes you more productive. Eat the right foods, get sufficient rest, work out regularly, keep a positive outlook and don’t overindulge.
I know this is all easier said than done, but it all comes down to one of my favorite personal mantras: Promote Energy Gainers, Eliminate ALL Energy Drainers.
Why it matters
Nothing fuels achievement like personal energy. The healthier you stay, the better you perform.
