I used to think low energy was just part of being busy.
It wasn’t. It was underfueling, under-recovering, and overextending.
The shift I made wasn’t dramatic...
Here are the 10 small habits I keep because I refuse to live with lack luster energy:
1️⃣I eat within an hour of waking up. Fuel first.
2️⃣I prioritise fibre. Stability over spikes.
3️⃣I don’t skip meals because I’m busy. Busy doesn’t need to mean depleted.
4️⃣I hydrate before caffeine. Water earns first position always.
5️⃣I grocery shop with intention. Preparation prevents any compromise.
6️⃣I don’t wait until I’m starving to eat. I fuel proactively, not reactively & when I am hungry not what the clock says.
7️⃣Daily movement. Moving my body actually protects my energy.
8️⃣I go outside. Sunlight resets everything.
9️⃣I protect my sleep like a performance metric.. because it is 😝
🔟I stopped glorifying running on empty. Exhaustion isn’t ambition.💯
These aren’t extreme habits. They’re foundational ones.
Happy feasting always,
