Credit Balance (A BonBon)

What are you doing about building up your charge accounts? Making steady deposits with puny withdrawals? Is your balance staying in the black or in the red? Do you always struggle against becoming overdrawn?

Oh, I’m not talking about your finances—but about your energy accounts. They’re far more important to you than money, though they seldom get to compete with money for your attention.

Energy provides your life force, the gas that keeps you chugging along. But you can’t get far when you try to run on empty. You can try hard, be very motivated and determined, display resolutely focused will power—yet still be unable to go. You won’t arrive at your destination or your efforts. Pause and check the gauge—you might just need a fill-up.

Fill up with more of those things which recharge you, that replenish and gladden you. Don’t wait until you’re on empty again before you fill back up. Refill at each station, each opportunity. It’s amazing how much more mileage and smileage you can get on full.

Next, notice how you’re using up your gas. Are you running around on futile, fruitless errands and projects, pursuing those things that bring only discharge, but no recharge? Enough! Stop the withdrawals and increase the deposits. That’s the principal (along with compounded interest) that enriches you. That provides for a rewarded future—yours.
