So, how did your list-making go?  How many “little” things did you write down? Did they include people? Relationships? Or just “to-do’s”?

Sometimes they can be bigger rather than little, hmm?  But, they’re energy drainers all the same.

So, what do you do?  How do you start plugging the “energy drain” so that you can keep more energy in your life?

First of all - you pick ONE.  Just ONE - an easy one, please.  (Don’t try to tackle your problems with your mother-in-law or your boss first, ok?)  For example, that subscription you’ve been meaning to cancel.  The phone call to a friend you’ve been meaning to make.  Get out the WD-40 and spray it on the hinges of that squeaky door.  Go get a trash sack and clean out all the trash out of the car.  Whatever.  Just SOMETHING. 

In other words - TAKE ACTION.  DO SOMETHING. You will be absolutely amazed at how good just one small 5 minute (or less) act can make you feel.

This goes back to my post from the other day - you know, the one where you thought I’d lost my mind - where I said, “Make your bed every day.”

Well… the principal is the same.  Just tackle one thing at a time.  One thing.  Take action.

Tomorrow - next step.  The Reward!
