Protecting your energy

Starting out as an investor/wholesaler (and I’m sure being a pro) is HARD psychologically speaking. Many of these books you and others recommend are probably motivational/inspirational (I.e Think and Grow Rich, or 10x growth) and meant to give us a 💪🏾 mental strength that will get us through the trials and help with blocking out negative Nancy’s, boosting us into the realm of the successful thinkers.

My question is how do YOU protect YOUR energy 🔋 from negative family/friends, harassers, haters, and just general bad vibes?

Is it hot baths ? 🛁 , naps, meditation 🧘‍♀️ ?...

Drop some jewels! 💎

@Tadela Tedemet I try to read or listen to something that inspires me each day.  Spend your time around people that energize and encourage you.  Take time for activities that energize and rejuvenate you.  In 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Stephen Covey talks about "sharpening the saw."  Do the things that rejuvenate you and allow you to tackle the rest of life's challenges.  For some it may be meditation, others exercise.  Find out what it is for you and make time for those activities.  I enjoy sports and time with my family.  That does it for me but those tend to be the things that I squeeze out when I get busy.  Those are the things that I should most make time for.  Hope you're better at that than I am.  Good luck.  Keep moving in the direction of your dreams.
