My energy coach taught me. He said the outcome can only be as great as the energetic state in which you initiate the action. Okay. What I realized is as long as my energetic state was poor, my outcomes in my life forever were going to be poor. Even if on paper they looked like I was accomplishing things really. I wasn't getting what I wanted. I wasn't getting peace, I wasn't getting happiness. I wasn't making impact. I wasn't getting love. All the things I wanted. My obsession became to stay in a peak state of mind at least 90% of the time. Pretty good 10% of life. You got to grieve or be angry or whatever, right? But if I could live 90% of my life in the grieving in flow, then how could I ever be on my deathbed and have any regrets?
