Let’s go! Energy … There is a negative and positive energy that we project every day. People love being around those who project the positive. Energy, Enthusiasm, and Exercise – sometimes you just need to get up, look up, stay up, and light it up! Don’t wait. Make it happen!
Remember, when doubt whispers ‘wait,’ let purpose answer with ‘now.’
and …
Oh, ok …
Hundreds of videos could’ve been included above, and without a doubt, one of them must’ve made you hit the ‘energy up’ button. If not, maybe I can help spark that momentum.
Everything—visible or invisible, physical or abstract—filters through the lens of our five senses, and perhaps even a sixth.
I’ve discovered that the following gives me the spark to overflow with energy and enthusiasm.
Touch and Energy
- Touch: Physical touch can be surprisingly powerful in boosting energy and enthusiasm.
- Baseball bat
- Nerf basketball and wall mounted hoop

- Exercise gear like dumbbells
- Fidget tools like Stress balls, textured cubes, or rubber bands (baseball bat – again) can increase focus and energy by engaging your hands
- Textured items.
