Sustaining Energy

60 seconds.

That’s what it takes my dog to go from zoomies to snoring. During these short bursts of energy he appears unstoppable. Until he stops. Exhausted, he promptly falls into a deep sleep.

It makes me wonder if we start our new year off with a burst of the zoomies.

The calendar turning to a new page is known to give us renewed energy and motivation. The temptation to run with it is strong.

Like my dog, we often appear unstoppable. And, like my dog, we find ourselves stopping after a short burst.

And whilst our ‘zoomies to snoring’ time period might be days, weeks, or even months, it’s often not enough to make change happen.

If you’ve an intention for change this year, I wonder how you might sustain the energy needed to go the distance.
