Burned Out or Plugged In?

When you align with a purpose that excites and stretches you, your energy multiplies. Passion is a natural fuel source. You don’t need to force motivation – you’re pulled forward by clarity, meaning and service. Like rocket fuel, your why propels you higher than discipline alone ever could.

Energy follows meaning. When your work or day-to-day life lacks depth or direction, your nervous system starts to conserve energy. You feel flat, foggy, uninspired. But when your project, career, or routine is infused with a reason that matters to you, your brain produces motivation, stamina and joy – naturally.

Strategies

Audit Your Energy Drops

Notice where your energy crashes. Meetings? Certain people? Projects? Often, energy drops reveal misalignment. Don’t just treat the symptom – examine the root. Is this task part of your true path?

Connect to Your Future Self

Visualise your future self already living their purpose. What are they doing, feeling, radiating? Let this vision pull you forward, replacing dread with direction.

Redesign Your Day Around What Energises You

Look for tiny shifts – even 15 minutes – where you do what brings you joy, creativity or flow. These small moments are fuel stations. Plug in daily.

Create a ‘Why Power’ Reminder

Write down your deeper why – who you’re doing this for, what future you’re building. Keep it visible. When you feel resistance, reconnect to that vision. The why resets the energy.

Remove the False “Shoulds”

Not every goal is yours. Let go of dreams inherited from others or based on outdated identity. When your goals are authentic, energy flows without resistance.

Align Goals with Service

When your goal serves others, not just yourself, it becomes magnetic. Service infuses purpose with meaning – and that creates sustainable energy.

Check the Emotional Charge

If your project feels heavy, ask: is it fear-driven or passion-fuelled? Adjust accordingly. Purpose may stretch you – but it won’t deplete you.

Speak It into Existence

Articulate your purpose out loud. Share it with someone. Coaching clients do this all the time – clarity grows as soon as it’s spoken. Words bring vision to life.

Conclusion

Energy is not just physical. It’s emotional, psychological and spiritual. Most people don’t need more rest – they need more resonance. You’ll find that when you align with a project, path or purpose that reflects your core values and vision. When that happens, motivation isn’t a struggle – it’s a side effect. Your life becomes less about pushing… and more about being pulled. That’s the true power of purpose. And it’s available to you – today.

Ponderings

• Where in my life do I feel most energised – and why?
• Am I working toward a goal that belongs to me or someone else?
• What would I pursue if I knew it would recharge me daily?
• What message is my fatigue trying to send me?
