Energy of the Week for March 5-11, 2012: Stamina

The main reason you do not try things you would like to do or give up on them too early is thinking you cannot do it. This week will show you have more stamina and perseverance than you realize. You can only put them to use when you have the stability to believe in yourself and take total responsibility to apply them.

How the energy of this week affects you in your personal life:
Your back area is the physical expression of having stamina and is what holds your whole body together, keeps you standing and moving and helps you carry your weight while laboring through tasks. If you experience any back pain, you are likely undermining your own ability to persevere through tough experiences by thinking you are too weak or incapable. Where does this all start? Were either of your parents like this or were you ever told you had this condition? Once you buy into a concept like this, you are locking up your own resources from getting to you and they are not available for you to use. Shake off this idea because you are as strong as you allow yourself to be. Going for it will open the door for all of your inner stability to help you make it happen. Do not overdo it. Pace yourself by taking proper breaks in order to replenish your energy. Everything will go a lot smoother and take you further than you ever thought you could go before.

How the energy of this week affects you in your business life:  
It is a common belief that being in business for yourself means taking on heavy responsibilities and bearing the weight from everyone else which eventually wears you down and takes away your stamina. The contrary is true. A really good business person, whether self-employed or working for someone else, has an easier time doing what they enjoy by coordinating in an organized fashion with others who contribute their part. No one has to do it all on their own. Business means nothing more than discerning the facts: what, when where and why and putting things into an orderly and efficient structure that works. Without this, you will always have an uneasy hectic time and it will be a challenge to persevere. With it, you can relax and let it all happen beautifully with your input and the proper use of your stamina while being able to handle anything along the way.    

How the energy of this week affects you in your social life:
Is your social life heavy on you? Are you carrying any loved ones on your back? Sooner or later, this can only take you so far as you will bend under the weight you are taking on. The key is to understand that your stamina is there to carry your own weight and not others. You do not need to be doing for others what they can be doing for themselves. If an opportunity is theirs, taking it away from them is not helping anyone and putting both sides at a disadvantage. The recipe for a successful social life is having a 50-50 relationship in the shape of an H. Each person has to stand their ground and hold up their end through an equal give and take with the other. This is the only model that can sustain and persevere through anything so that both sides can feel adequately independent, in charge and contributing in a full and complete way.
