- 0:08Speaker 2: you ever met someone and thought, I wish I hand
- 0:11Speaker 2: your energy? How do they have so much energy when
- 0:13Speaker 2: you're quietly dying in a pit of lethargy. I've just
- 0:20Speaker 2: described Sam Wallace's life.
- 0:22Speaker 3: Do you think that quite often? Sammy, yeah, one hundred percent.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Like I try to be energy because often as I can,
- 0:27Speaker 1: but sometimes my world of three young children gets the
- 0:29Speaker 1: better of me.
- 0:30Speaker 3: And I'm here for Lisa's tips. We are the great users.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Lisa O'Neill is with us and her new book is
- 0:35Speaker 2: called Energy, How to Get It, Guard It, and Give It.
- 0:38Speaker 2: And if you've ever heard Lisa speak, you will know
- 0:41Speaker 2: she has a whole lot of energy despite being a
- 0:44Speaker 2: mother of four, very busy. Every time I see you, Lisa,
- 0:48Speaker 2: you are a bundle of joy. How do you get
- 0:50Speaker 2: to that point?
- 0:52Speaker 3: Well, I think it's my whole focus. Like I spend
- 0:54Speaker 3: every single decision I make every days about what gives
- 0:57Speaker 3: me more energy and what makes me happy. Every single
- 1:01Speaker 3: decision from what I wear to what I drink, to
- 1:03Speaker 3: where I sleep to what I eat Okay, it's just
- 1:06Speaker 3: my whole focus because I think it's our only job.
- 1:09Speaker 3: All right, let's start with that. Then what do you drink?
- 1:12Speaker 3: I do drink. I am a coffee at it. I
- 1:14Speaker 3: love coffee as.
- 1:15Speaker 2: A replace for alcohol and that energy.
- 1:17Speaker 3: No, no, it'll mess your energy. Zero alcohol. Are you
- 1:21Speaker 3: a teetotal No, No, I'm not, no, because I'm not that.
- 1:23Speaker 3: I'm not that sort of exact about anything. So my
- 1:26Speaker 3: kids are I thought you didn't drink, and I'm like,
- 1:27Speaker 3: I'm having a cocktail because i want one, and I
- 1:30Speaker 3: just have what i want. I'm big on being lead
- 1:32Speaker 3: by once. With that theme, then what do you eat
- 1:35Speaker 3: for energy? A lot of protein and a lot of egies, cabs.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I love calves. I would live on cabs if I could,
- 1:41Speaker 3: but they dunp my energy. So like on a Friday night,
- 1:44Speaker 3: I can consume a whole pizza and I can barely
- 1:46Speaker 3: speak because I'm just in this cab coma. But you
- 1:49Speaker 3: found happiness and it's like, and that's all good, But
- 1:52Speaker 3: I can't do that on a Wednesday afternoon when I'm
- 1:54Speaker 3: about to speak at a conference. So to me, it's
- 1:56Speaker 3: about following. I reckon your energy. Last year three hours.
- 2:00Speaker 3: Everything you eat is the next three hours, so it's like,
- 2:01Speaker 3: how do you have to be the next three hours
- 2:04Speaker 3: and eat for that? So Checken and broccoli is my
- 2:06Speaker 3: go to. I'm like chicken and broccoli go to and
- 2:09Speaker 3: that I'm on fire. If I have Checken and BROCOLI okay,
- 2:12Speaker 3: I have spuds, You're okay.
- 2:14Speaker 2: So the carbs are the low energy, although you will
- 2:17Speaker 2: allow yourself.
- 2:17Speaker 3: I love calves and I have them.
- 2:19Speaker 2: This whole planning of your energy, when do you get
- 2:22Speaker 2: time to plan? Because I'm thinking. I sometimes think to myself,
- 2:25Speaker 2: I need to plan my meals for this week, and
- 2:27Speaker 2: then my attention gets taken and then I forget. So
- 2:30Speaker 2: do you actually sit down and do you journal? How
- 2:33Speaker 2: are you going to have good energy? Or is it
- 2:34Speaker 2: just a constant focus in your mind.
- 2:36Speaker 3: It's kind of a constant focus. But I do have
- 2:38Speaker 3: two meetings with myself a week, and my favorite meetings.
- 2:41Speaker 3: I love them. I have catering and it's a meeting
- 2:43Speaker 3: all for me. And occasionally get a meeting with myself.
- 2:46Speaker 3: You know, the meeting with yourself is very good. It's
- 2:48Speaker 3: very good. Does low your energy? This is a meeting
- 2:55Speaker 3: with pen and papers? Oh so you're having a meeting
- 2:57Speaker 3: and you're writing down what you've got to do and
- 2:58Speaker 3: how you want to be. And so I actually created
- 3:01Speaker 3: a planner for that because I couldn't find a way
- 3:03Speaker 3: of managing my life that was quite big, and little
- 3:05Speaker 3: diaries went big enough, you know. So I think that's important.
- 3:08Speaker 3: But most of it's intuitive. I go what do I want?
- 3:09Speaker 3: And you know how when someone said, oh, what do
- 3:11Speaker 3: you want, and you go what? But you haven't even
- 3:13Speaker 3: thought about it. It's just an automated response instead of going,
- 3:17Speaker 3: actually I want a long black or like really thinking
- 3:20Speaker 3: about what do you want and your body will lead
- 3:22Speaker 3: you to what you need? You go, actually, no, I
- 3:24Speaker 3: just need water right now. Yeah, we're on auto because
- 3:28Speaker 3: we don't connect. I think intuition is so big and
- 3:31Speaker 3: just connecting with actually what do I want? I just
- 3:33Speaker 3: need to lie down, or I just need to go
- 3:34Speaker 3: and stand outside, or what do you need right now?
- 3:37Speaker 3: But we don't give ourselves our needs. We don't we
- 3:40Speaker 3: override them because we go, oh, no, I can't be
- 3:42Speaker 3: high maintenance and well offend people? Oh do you offend people?
- 3:46Speaker 3: In time? And with that being offended to a choice,
- 3:51Speaker 3: and I think if I offend people, I'm getting it right.
- 3:53Speaker 3: You don't want to everyone to like you. It's a
- 3:55Speaker 3: boring game. You don't Vanilla. No, I'm not at all.
- 3:59Speaker 3: And I'm like, yeah, cold, you're offended. That was your choice,
- 4:01Speaker 3: you know, offend. It's a choice, and I think people
- 4:03Speaker 3: are I'm offended.
- 4:04Speaker 2: But what about dependence because I'm looking at Sam and
- 4:07Speaker 2: you can't just get say I'm going to make this
- 4:09Speaker 2: decision You're three years old.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Will be offended then you know what I mean. But
- 4:13Speaker 3: I think to break it down is energy and attitude
- 4:15Speaker 3: as opposed. Yeah, I think so. And I think when
- 4:18Speaker 3: with little kids, like they are a lot of work right,
- 4:20Speaker 3: But it's not a surprise to mate.
- 4:23Speaker 2: You're not in Ukraine.
- 4:25Speaker 3: It's like and I think it's a strategies And I
- 4:28Speaker 3: used to have strategies like I'd go right, everyone's going
- 4:30Speaker 3: to blanket Bay, and blanket Bay meant lie down. I
- 4:33Speaker 3: don't care what you do. You have terrible strategies.
- 4:35Speaker 1: To four is easier than three.
- 4:40Speaker 3: I think number.
- 4:41Speaker 2: I think we've come back to the realization that you
- 4:43Speaker 2: need to read the book and it's called energy.
- 4:44Speaker 3: How to get it, guard it and give it.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Lisa, thank you for your time, and if we can
- 4:48Speaker 2: read this and get an ounce of your energy, you'll
- 4:50Speaker 2: be very happy.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Easy.
