Your life is functioning in one of these three basic patterns:
1. The fire of desire, inspiration, enthusiasm, and passion is driving your life with energy and purpose.
2. You are on fire all right, spinning your wheels and burning out.
3. You are flaming out in survival and pulling back in fear of failure.

When a small jet plane flames out it crashes and burns.  Many people are finding this happening in their life now.  Granted the economy and all the news is negative.  All of the banks, corporations and the politicians’ behavior is coming to a head exploding in the news. This has created a lot of fear. Yet there are many people who are succeeding quite well, contrary to the current situation.  Why?

Some people operate out of high positive energy.  Most people operate out of low negative energy.
How do you fuel your energy?  Do you get up in the morning with high energy rested and ready to go?
When performing at peak performance people who have high energy operate from optimism, intention, desire, inspiration, enthusiasm and passion to meet their commitments and goals.   Fear driven people operate from defense against a threat which they perceive is going to happen, so they live in survival.  They lose contact with their end goal because FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real.

If you were rowing a boat across a river and you hit a snag what would you do? The boat is taking on water. The current will take you down the river not to the other side.  What would you do?   Row faster to get to the other side or would you stop rowing and start bailing the water out of the boat?   Would you be overwhelmed and let the fear cause you to lose your ability to make a positive decision to get to the other side?  Or would you stay in control, keep on rowing faster knowing you will get to the other side?
Most people would react in fear and start bailing which is short sighted. They lose sight of the goal falling into fear.  The boat is going to sink.  Is it really?  You could get to the shore before it sinks. Most people run their life in this manner.  They get thrown on a detour very easily losing sight of their original goal. This causes distraction, procrastination and side tracks us.  The challenge is to stay focused on the goal so we do not get caught up in self deception and lose sight of the goal.  What does this look like?  The first item on the agenda is to have all three levels of energy focused and set on our expected goals and outcomes each day.

We operate from energy. Positive high energy builds us up, whereas negative emotions, feelings and attitudes eat up our energy and cause us to burn out. We must have all the energy producers in our life working at a high level or we will burn and flame out.  How do we fan and ignite the fire under our desire to get started over if you are burning out?  You must have high energy which is three dimensional coming from three different levels in your life. 
 
1. Physical energy is supported by proper diet and exercise.  This is what supplies the go factor in your life.  Contrary to what some people think exercise actually builds energy.  Your diet must provide proper nutrients to build energy.  (More on this in other articles)
