The Energy Audit: Where Is Your Power Going? ⚡🧠⏳
Let’s talk about something no planner, app, or to-do list can fix:
👉 You’re not out of time—you’re out of energy.
Every person has a limited daily budget of mental, emotional, and physical energy. And most of us are leaking it everywhere.
If you constantly feel drained, scattered, or behind, it’s time to do an Energy Audit.
What’s an Energy Audit?
It’s like a financial audit—but instead of tracking dollars, you track:
- 👀 Where your attention goes
- 💬 What conversations leave you energized vs. depleted
- 🧠 What thoughts run in the background all day
- 🧍♀️ Who’s getting your best self vs. what’s left of you
Step 1: List Your Energy Sources and Sinks
Sources = Charge you up
- Sleep
- Music
- Prayer or meditation
- Nature
- Movement
- Creative flow
Sinks = Drain you dry
- Doomscrolling
- Passive-aggressive convos
- Overcommitment
- Clutter
- Unfinished tasks
Now rate how much time you spend with each.
Step 2: Ask the Big Question
Is this fueling my future or feeding my fear?
That one question can rewire your calendar and your mindset overnight.
Because energy isn’t just about time—it’s about alignment.
Step 3: Make 3 Micro Shifts 🔧
Don’t overhaul your life. That’s just another energy drain.
Start here:
- Say no to one draining thing this week.
- Add one 5-minute energy source to your morning.
- Move one annoying task to a time when your energy is high.
That’s it. That’s the audit.
Bottom Line 💡
Time management is great. But energy management is everything.
If you want to live with purpose, start paying attention to what actually fuels you—and protect it like your life depends on it.
Because in a way? It does.
