Motivational Business Speaker On Energy

Here’s one topic that you might not always hear from a motivational business speaker – affects of different kinds of energy.

I’ve been teaching holiday ski camps which are intensive 5-day programs in snow skiing.  In fact, in a 16 day period, I will be on the snow for 15 of those days.  I took only New Year’s Day off.

I was planning to do some work in my personal development and speaking projects in the evening after I got home after the full days on the ski slopes.  However, I have been finding myself just drained after each day.

I had thought that since most of the ski day is using up my physical energy, this would not affect my mental energy in the evenings.  However, I’ve been finding that my assumption has not been correct.

Physical Energy Affects Mental Energy

It seems that physical energy affects mental energy after all as I’m not alert enough during these past evenings to put much work into my ongoing projects.  I find that I have just enough to do quick catchups on Facebook, Twitter, email and the odd blog post like this one.

As a result, any current big projects involving my motivational business speaker side of my business will just have to wait for a bit.  After I was done with the two ski camps, I had another five straight days on the ski slopes as I taught one day at another ski resort followed by a full day of instructor training and development for myself.  Then there are three more full days of ski teaching until I have a day off the slopes.  At the time of this writing, I’m starting the first of those final three days.

The remainder of the winter will involve the first part of the week teaching skiing so with this experience, I will probably not expect to do too much heavy work on my motivational business speaker projects during my ski days.  I’ll plan to do the bulk of this work on my off days.

Motivational Business Speaker To Resume WebTV

My Motivational WebTV series will probably not resume until next week as I have not had the energy to shoot a new episode during the holiday season.  I hope to come out with a new episode either late next week or the week after.

In the meantime, there are a lot of videos to catch up on in the Motivational WebTV Archive.  So please stay tuned for that video and other new developments once my current ski teaching marathon tapers down.

Hey, if you have had cases where physical energy affected mental energy, or vice versa, please share below.
