Like Obiwan says in Star Wars “The force surrounds us, it
penetrates us and binds the galaxy together”, the force in reality is
surrounding energy. Some look at the force as some blasphemous evil and it’s
not even real but yet it very much is. We absorb energy from the moment we were
born to the day we die, day in and day out we surround ourselves with some form
of energy. The energy that surrounds us has both positive and negative effects.
The positive as an example would by energy that has happiness, warmth from
within, the negative would be the surrounding energy of gloominess, sadness,
fear, anxiety.
Why do we
absorb it? Sometimes it just happens whether we ant it to or not. Think of it
this way, you wake up one day feeling happy and gitty, then you turn on the
morning news and you watch it for a bit then all of a sudden you start to feel
sad and stressed, it’s because you absorbed the negative energy coming from the
news and your feelings change. Now I hate the news and prevent myself from
watching it because I don’t want to feel those negative effects. Another look
at how energy is around us is when you walk into a place and you sense
something is up and you can't quite put your finger on it, you’re aware of it
but you can't figure out whether it’s good or bad. At times you can sense
something great or bad but its all how you absorb it. Sometimes we don't always
feel it but also we absorb so much its overwhelming and can have an explosive
effect so like anything else, if you do something too much, it’s going to come
back and bite you in the ass.
The energy
surrounding our bodies can be our best friend or our worst enemy and from
experience I've had both and one or the other has hit me hard, to use the energy
to our advantage we ought to use a strategy for both offensive and defensive.
The offense is like having an all-star team that just seems like they're
unbeatable and can score and power through obstacles like it’s nothing; the
defensive is when you have another all-star team that just seems like whatever
crosses their path nobody can get passed them, like your own version of Fort
Knox with the highest level of security. Picture in your mind what you want for
your all-star squads and they can be anyone you want or you can choose to put
up barriers it’s up to you. You can use the energy to block out anxiety and
stress and you can use energy for how you move and creating powerful spheres
that can help you with your strength.
Use your
energy strategy wisely. Sometimes energy whether good or bad can come at us
without being aware of it and it can hit us harder and hurt or feel good more
than anything physical. Learn to be aware of certain energy and use your
imagination to create a powerful team or barrier and use them to your own
endeavor. Whether you're an office worker, athlete, fitness enthusiast or
whoever you choose to be and going through life in general, you have powerful
energy and you can absorb its strength but how you do it is up to you and developing
awareness is a key.
