In this brief YouTube monologue, CL Palmer shares a personal anecdote about how his lack of sleep and failure to honor his own energy led to a chaotic morning for his children, culminating in his daughter crying because she missed breakfast. He uses the story to illustrate that neglecting personal rest not only harms the individual but also negatively impacts those around them. Palmer urges viewers, especially as they begin 2026, to "honor your energy" by prioritizing rest, performing "energy accounting" to identify what activities energize versus drain them, and recognizing that non‑essential tasks can be postponed. The overall message is a motivational call to adopt healthier habits, emphasizing that taking care of one's energy benefits both personal productivity and relationships.

Chapters

So let me tell you how important it is that you honor your energy, because the last time I didn't, I made my little girl cry. If you like me, you got plenty of projects, tasks to complete, and I went a little late. I had already not gotten enough sleep the night before, so this is night 2. Of course, I get up late, they get picked up late, they get to school late. So take them to class, I get my son situated, I I come back to say bye to them and my daughter is in shambles. She's crying her eyes out and I'm like, what's the problem? And the problem was she didn't get to eat breakfast. The problem was they were used to coming to school and eating breakfast and I could not calm them down enough until the teacher was like, just let them eat today. But I was there for about an extra 10 minutes just trying to get them to calm down about eating. And it just, it comes to show that making sure that I'm getting my rest and I'm honoring my energy really affects everything and everyone around me. And so I hope you, starting this 2026, will honor your energy and think about who it's affecting and what it's affecting in your life. There's always going to be time to finish that project, that task, or whatever it is you got in front of you. Honor your energy and understand what's really important what's giving you energy and what's draining your energy. Do some energy accounting because it matters. All right, y'all stay blessed.
