So it's hard to move from overvalent and try to push through overvalm.
It will create more resistance than solutions.
So that's why sometimes what the best thing is to do is to step back.
It's not about not feeling your emotions and become unavailable and avoidant.
Because I think some people, they tip it to the extreme and they think, well, for me,
I just cannot show any motion because if I show emotion, it means I'm weak.
Therefore, I'm not leading.
Hello, my dearest entrepreneur friends, welcome back to another video.
Today, we're going to talk about the three different types of energies you need in order to operate as a human, especially in business.
The first type is obviously physical energy.
And physical energy is what you need to make shit happen, to work, to move, like all of those things.
And when you don't have physical energy, you're feeling depleted, tired, losing.
sleep. Obviously, sleep is one of the ways that you can recharge, but the only way to recharge
your physical energy is by movement, by exercise, and the more you exercise, the more access
you have to your physical energy. Now, I don't want to go like super deep into your physical
energy because I feel like that's pretty obvious to everyone, but what I want to go next
is emotional energy. And to me, emotional energy is equals content.
containment. So containment in terms of containing yourself and your own emotional landscape and your clients and their emotional landscape and the people around you and their emotional landscape and you not losing your center and tipping over or overflowing or exploding on people. So that is so important to master because to me emotional energy equals emotional resource.
And it cannot just be a business thing.
It's like sometimes having enough emotional resource means I can contain others.
I can go into a space where there is a grumpy waiter and I can use that resource to shift that person out of their, you know, emotional turmoil, whatever anger they had because there is more resource left for me.
But let's assume I'm already drained and I have clocked.
who I had to contain. I couldn't even contain myself. And in that scenario, when someone is
rude, for example, I would not be able to contain them and be okay. I would love that
affect my mood. And that would shift me out of my containment and peace. And that would stir me into
that and getting angry and upset. Many times, and this emotional containment is not something
that we, especially if you're leading, especially if you're a business owner, if you are a business
owner, the emotional containment is not even a question that you need to develop. Because emotional
containment will help you not fuck up your relationships with people, especially in business. It will
help you to contain yourself and not lose your shit in front of your team, for example, when there is
something like you're under pressure, there's something happening and you're exploding on people.
There has to be emotional containment in your practice. When you are pitching an offer, for
example, or when you are operating in, there's inquiries in your business. There is a no,
there's a rejection. There are so many points in which you need to contain yourself that if you
don't know how to do that, if you don't develop self-containment, you can do. You can do
just be like not just exploding but you can lose trust with the people that you are looking to
influence or lead and to me a contained leader is a safe leader is a trusted leader and to me
a contained service provider like in any type of business owner is one to lead to be containing
themselves and others and hold steady even when trials and
tribulations rise which they always kind of do and it's not about becoming this
disassociated person it's not about not feeling your emotions and become unavailable
and avoidant because I think some people they tip it to the extreme and they
think well for me I just cannot show any emotion because if I show emotion
it means I'm weak, therefore I'm not leading.
It's not about that.
It's about, first of all, controlling your emotions,
like being in control of your own emotions
and understanding them, like knowing what's happening inside of you,
understanding them, and almost like choosing when to let them,
when to process them, and when not to let that spill into your professional life.
This is like EQ one-on-one, but it's the ability to,
if you have something going on for you personally, it's the ability to put that aside and
go back to it when you have time to deal with it. And I'm not saying that you shouldn't deal
with it. I'm saying that you should put that aside and contain it until you have time to deal
with it. So many times, this might sound a little bit like this associative, but many times
what I experience is even there is some upset happening, I can't put that aside.
and deal with it when I have the time to do so and when I have the time to do so then I sit
with it, I work through it and I am able to then contain it better and even just move through
it sometimes because sometimes it just can be, you just feel it and you're good to go.
It doesn't have to be ruining relationships, especially not in business.
Like just you can learn, name it, sit with it, process it and move on.
And I think it's not about becoming a psychopathic leader either and not having emotion and being
super cold. It's about being selective, how much you let them to the surface, in which scenarios
you do them, and with who you do them, and when you do them. So it's a bit more developing the
discernment on when do I let those bubbles to surface. And I see many leaders lead with emotion.
And I'm not saying it's a bad thing, because especially like some of us, especially on social media,
I see a lot of, I don't like it, but I see a lot of them leading with this deficiency promotion
when you put the thumbnail of you crying or you film yourself crying.
And to me, it sounds theatrical.
So to me, that's not a genuine expression of emotion, especially if you grab your phone
and take a picture of it and put it on social media.
Like from that point on, it becomes theatrical.
And at that point, it becomes manipulative to me.
So to me, it's about knowing how to express them, when to express them, when to contain them, how to contain them, to be a steady person and to be self-reliant and to be able to call and contain other people better.
And I think this practice has been something that especially for women, it's much harder to master.
But I think for men, it's much easier because they are generally, generally some of them are good at.
containing but some of them they are just like disassociated as fuck and they don't even feel it
that's a different story but it's easier for men to contain them and be level-headed than for women
for women is a bit of a challenge because there's hormones they are accessible to us more freely
we are raised to feel them and deal with them but again like I said if you are spilling over
and not being able to contain yourself it's going to undermine your trust with the people that
you're showing up with your peers as well and with the type of teams that you are leading.
So being able to contain emotions is superly massively fucking important.
So ways to cultivate containment is first of all recognizing, practicing mindfulness,
understanding your emotions, what they are, ability to name them, even feel them to the edge of it.
So, if you ever done that, if you are filling your emotions when you give them the space
to fill them, you also notice that you can reach and love it.
And from that point, I tips over to something else.
That's an interesting practice to me.
I challenge you to give it a go.
It's actually fun to fill them all the way until you get bored of them, until you're like,
okay, I'm done.
That's something that is super healthy as well into practice.
And I think just becoming mindful and meditating.
maybe practicing just being still and giving yourself a space and time to work through them
process instead of, you know, unleashing it on the first person that comes through the door.
The other and third type of energy that we all need to cultivate is mental energy.
And mental energy to me is bandwidth is the ability to hold different projects at the same time
is ability to focus on different things I'm working on at the same time,
is ability to show up for my clients in whole multiple projects
and multiple clients at the same time.
And bandwidth can be a big issue for a lot of us.
That's why we have to be very, very selective of what and who we give our mental bandwidth
to.
So this can mean that instead of giving your mental bandwidth to everyone, to do news, to
gossips to engagements that drain you and take that focus off you so you cannot have enough
energy bandwidth to focus on what really matters it's something that you need to be mindful of like
you need to look at what is draining my mental bandwidth and what is helping me stay in focused
flow and productive way and just stay productive and how can I master that and I think bandwidth is
something that I felt the most actually because I think bandwidth issue for me was something
that came up the fastest when it comes to managing my energies because I found myself often getting
overrun with having too many clients and projects running at the same time and I think knowing
where you currently is and being able to know when to step back, when to give space,
base, when to say no, what to say no to, like all of those and managing that with discernment
is going to be really helpful when it comes to managing your own bandwidth energy.
One of the things that I found difficult, and now I think people understand it, but I used to be
hawking in my bandwidth like crazy. And this also meant when it came to friends or my partner,
There was a lot of boundaries that had to be put there because I knew that when I need to work
on something or focus on something, I cannot be possibly juggling too many things at once.
So over time, I learned to cultivate relationships that are not taking up too much of my
mental bandwidth, but also recognizing when something is taking up too much bandwidth and
And when do I need to step back and bring the power back to myself?
And I think that's something that every business owner, especially if you are in a high
performance rounds, but any business owner has to kind of work with this discernment of do
I give my energy, mental bandwidth to drama, to low-level conflicts to people that are not
necessarily wanting to find a solution. Like how much am I giving mental bandwidth to those things
versus the things that are actually moving the needle? They matter. They're important. Like,
where am I cutting on that bandwidth and giving it to the people who and the projects who need
my attention the most, who have the biggest impact, the biggest movement and the biggest even
financial gain in the moment. So I think just knowing how to juggle that is so, so important
and when to step back and cut back on giving too much of your bandwidth away. And I think
especially that's something I noticed, knowing and having a lot of high-performer friends,
when we operate on limited bandwidth, it has to be this understanding, especially in our
relationships, where we recognize that this is not a time for us to be indulging in.
and friendly activities sometimes, but it's time for us to focus and understanding that
and signaling that to the people around you, whether it's your family, your partner, your
friendships, like that to me, that communicating that boundary, that there is a heavy output
period that we're going through right now. I think that actually helped tremendously to save
those friendships, to save those relationships. What I have noticed is that the people who get it,
they get it you don't have to explain to them especially if they are operating on limiting and
being selective on the bandwidth as well so these are three types of energies how do we develop
mental bandwidth is first of all it will grow in itself but it's more prioritizing it's more like
becoming more selective so sometimes mental bandwidth can come with walking away from projects
So spending more time in nature, recharging yourself, sometimes physically traveling or moving out of your space, that can help you kind of recharge the bandwidth a little bit and to kind of reset the bandwidth, especially if the bandwidth is overwhelmed.
And I hear this all the time when there's so many things going on for my clients that they get into overwhelm.
To me, overwhelm can be sometimes debilitating because it becomes a little bit of a freeze.
So it's hard to move from overvalm and try to push through overvalm.
It will create more resistance than solutions.
So that's why sometimes what the best thing is to do is to step back, to zoom out,
to remove yourself, to reset, and find ways to calm your nervous system and reset yourself
so that you can refocus on what really matters for you.
And like I said, the people who get it, they get it.
they're not going to leave you or you're not going to break those relationships with the people who
get it and who don't get it that's fine it's a different vibe it's to be in a different frequency
and i think it's definitely something that when you are wanting to create something meaningful
that you need to watch and hawk and protect like crazy these are the three energies let me know
which one of them you are really good at right now let me know which one of them you need to work on
kind of honing a little bit more. I'm curious to hear all of that in the comments below.
Thank you so much for watching and listening and I'll see you guys right soon.
