The reason why you feel socially awkward is because you feel other people's perception and view stronger than you feel your own. That means when you have more energy, you feel your own preference so much more than you feel other people's preferences, other people's perception of you, and it gives your life a completely different direction. When it comes to energy management there are five things you can do to help you get more energy into your life.
First thing is, sleep. I've been telling this, and I'm going to keep saying it. You need your seven to eight hours of sleep on a regular basis. If you go out one night, fine. One time a week, great, but you need a regular sleep schedule. Seven to eight hours, and I really mean it. You go to bed at or and you get up at or 7:00. This is the basis of everything. The second thing is nutrition. You don't know how many people have approached me in the last weeks and said, "I look so much better. My skin is all cleared up." For all the girls watching, I'm not even wearing foundation right now. It completely changed once I made sure that i had the right nutritions in my body. I eat a lot of plant based food. I made sure that I cut out sugar, and all that kind of stuff that doesn't really help me.
Gives me so much more energy, and the thing about sleep and nutrition and things I'm going to talk about later is, if you have a reason for it, which is not vanity of I want to look good, I want to present myself well so other people like me, but the reason is, I need to do all those things because I need energy. So, once you have that you're much more likely to really stick with it, and go through with it, and have incredible results.
So third thing is exercise. You need endorphins, and you do need more hands on physical energy. It's not just about your mind, it's about your body, and people who exercise have so much more energy, and you need to have that energy no matter what you want to create in your life. Don't eat much, but you need it on a regular basis. The fourth thing is eliminating people who are draining to you, and this is a big one. I know you going to work. I know you have people in your family that you see from time to time that you have to hang out with, but you don't need that much time with other people. Especially, if you're an introvert, highly sensitive person, or intuitive, whatever. You need that alone time. When I do work on my business I probably spend six to eight hours at home by myself Monday to Friday. I do not miss a thing. It's something society tells us we need, but as introverts we don't need that much. I still communicate through video, through social media, but I'm not having this overload of energy and of people who just have different preferences than me.
So, I remove as much energy that I don't want to have in my life from my life. The fifth thing, and this is something I'm also going to keep repeating to you, bring positivity into your life. It's not a spiritual thing. It's not just this esoteric thought that once you think of positive things, love, attraction, positive things come to you.
It's a scientific fact that once you believe in you create more of. If you think of all the bad things that could happen, and you're just preparing for the worst, guess what? You're concentrating on that. You're seeing more of those things, and those things amplify. It just happens this way. You can see problems in everything, but you can also see possibilities in everything, and the more you see the possibilities in everything, the more of those things you're really going to go for. It really works. I lived it. I do gratitude affirmations last thing when I go to bed. I meditate in the morning, and I think of the great day ahead, and I'm excited about every little thing that happened to me the day before.
Let me repeat. Sleep, nutrition, working out, cutting negative people out of your life, and being positive. Those five things are the things that will bring most energy into your life, and you need energy. I will talk about in further videos how you can use that energy to really create a life on your terms, but right now we're talking about how to be less socially awkward. It's not about finding methods that you can use, or phrases you can just throw out there when somebody is making you uncomfortable. It's about making you feel stronger in the presences of people, and therefore we need to work on our energy. Those are really things that make you effective in what you're trying to achieve. The thing you want to achieve in the first place is stop being socially awkward. Feel great when you go out. This is your life. You should feel like the main character in your life, and not some supporting role. Make sure, if you don't feel like the main character in your movie, then there's something that you should change.
Working on your energy management is a really practical way to go about it. It's the basis of everything.
