Quarter life crisis vs. Mid life crisis

So, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who is in her early 30's and she was telling me all about the quarter-life crisis that she had gone through when she was just 25....about the anguish she felt about not knowing what she wanted to do with her life.   

And I was trying to think back to that time to remember if I had felt the same.  I remember going through the whole "what will I major in?" anxiety for sure.   Psychology ended up being my thing--turns out studying human behavior and optimizing performance has always been interesting to me.

But the way she described her crisis was more than just anxiety--it was full on melt-down mode...paralyzing.  She ended up making a drastic decision and changing her career course--not once but three times.  She's now a successful entrepreneur--making over 7 figures!  I'd say that "crisis" paid off!

With the holiday season right around the corner, managing your ENERGY could mean the difference between  “Ho, Ho, Ho” and “Oh, No, No”. 

Holiday parties, finding the perfect presents, overindulging in cocktails or sweets, turkey and stuffing, not to mention the caffeinated quick fixes that come disguised as desserts!   All take a toxic toll on your energy.

 Combine that with the added stress of the 4th quarter and trying reach your end of year goals and you’ve got a recipe for an energy crash that could leave you dragging and susceptible to colds and the flu.   NOT the way you want to head into the New Year.

As one of my mentors, Brendon Burchard, says “the power plant doesn’t have energy, it generates it”.   So true!  We each have our very own personal power plant and we need to take care of it so that it can perform at it’s best.   That doesn’t need to be...
