How To Get More Energy: 2 STEPS

Have you ever asked yourself, "how do I become a better person?" It's essentially saying how do I become like this person and it's someone they admire. Anyone can be more attractive in a sense where people can be drawn to your personality. Less fatigue and more energy is the end goal to being more attractive as a person. I want to reveal my answers here in this blog post simply because I know if those around me can follow these simple steps then their life will be drastically better. It's only two tips but that doesn't mean that's all of it. I wanted to break it down to two easy things you can do to have more energy and vitality in your life.


Number one: Eat Better
I believe that diet is the most important tip on here. If there is one thing you can do from this list then I rather you eat healthy because this will affect everything else like a trickle-down-effect.  If you eat healthier then you can change your life around and do a lot more. Back in 2011 I decided to make the change to vegetarianism. My reasoning was at the time was that I wanted to stop eating at fast food restaurants. I loved to eat! The problem was that I didn't control what I ate. I hardly ate any fruits or vegetables. I drink very little water and my health was in poor shape. So, if you can cut out sodas and replace them with unsweet teas and water that will make a drastic difference! Lemon water or water with a spoonful of apple cider vinegar is my absolute favorites right now. It's great for detoxing your body and cleansing. You'll feel like you have more energy which is essentially what you want! I challenge you to a 30 day lemon water challenge. Drink lemon water every morning and if you can throughout the day. Another easy thing you can do is cut out fried foods and desserts because those slow your body down. Replace sweet things with fruits to snack on.

Number two: Get enough sleep
I see way too many people not get enough sleep and this affects their performance at school, at work, and in a social setting. You'll tend to make more mistakes and not be at your best. I'm guilty of this and I sometimes don't get enough sleep and it affects my work performance. Sleep is important to help your body heal. Try reading a book or do some meditation or relaxation techniques before you go to bed. Avoid drinking alcohol and stimulating activities such as exercising and watching tv at night. This can actually keep you up! It's best to do a quiet activity at night such as listening to soothing music, aromatherapy, hot bath, etc.

There are a lot more factors involved in becoming a better person such as placing yourself at a higher value, be interested instead of interesting but I want to emphasize small steps that will end up getting you there a lot faster. If you do this for a month you'll feel like you will have more energy and want more of it. I can share more tips on top of this that worked for me. I feel like I have so much energy now because I've been taking care of my body.

Skiing, Snow, & More!

As a part of my new years resolution I wanted to go out and do more this year. I wanted to meet new people and do things I haven't done before. So I decided to take a trip. Yes, I said it. I have not left Texas for so long that I felt like I have been caged in my own state. As much as I loved it here, I really needed a break. I've locked myself up for the past couple of years studying and working hard and decided to reward myself. My lovely friend flew me out to his place in CO. I went skiing for the first time and of course I had a few falls *coughs* more like fifty of them but it was so worth it. I didn't hurt myself, thank goodness! I really want to do it again. To ski for the day was like 150 US dollars. It was expensive if you ask me. The membership is 650 dollars for the year which is a better deal since you can ski at anytime. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something new.
