7 Steps To Having More Energy

1. Get enough sleep.

Sleep deprivation is the most common cause of low energy andfatigue. Most adults need 8 hours of sleep every night. Ifyou are sleeping in late on weekends, it's a sign that youdon't get enough sleep during the week.

If you have to wake up early in the morning, go to sleepearlier in the evening. Going to bed even 30 minutesearlier can make a huge difference in your energy levelsduring the day!

2. Reduce clutter.

Not being able to find anything among out-of-control pilesof papers is stressful. Clothes that you never wear, papersthat are falling everywhere and useless items that you feelsorry to throw out can invade your space and take over yourlife.

Clutter causes stress and saps away energy. Dump allunnecessary stuff in a big garbage can, and you'll be ableto breathe easier and have more energy.

3. Drink more water.

Being dehydrated makes you feel tired and irritable. If youare not thirsty, that does not mean that you drink enoughwater. By the time you feel thirsty it's too late - you arealready dehydrated.

Most people need at least 8 cups of water per day. Theeasiest way to know that you are drinking enough is to buyone of those "8 glass" water-bottles that they sell in mostdrugstores.

4. Take a walk.

Sitting in the chair all day can make you feel stiff andtired, and then you'd feel too lazy to get up, creating avicious cycle of inactivity.

Make it into a habit to take a walk every day, and yourenergy levels will increase.

5. Break a routine.

Having the same old routine every day sucks out your souland steals your energy.

Do not allow yourself to get stuck in a rut! Do somethingnew on a regular basis.

6. See a friend.

Isolation is a recipe for bad mood and low energy. Evenwhen you don't feel like dealing with anyone, spending timewith a person whose company you enjoy will energize you.

7. Lose weight.

Carrying excess weight puts additional strain on the body.Even an extra 10 lbs are hard to carry. Try lifting a 10 lbsack of potatoes! Now imagine it being permanently attachedto you - day and night.

If you are overweight, your body has to work hard toconstantly carry around the extra pounds. Shed the excessfat, and you'll feel lighter and more energetic.
