Life Lessons from Motorcycles: Seventy-Five Tips for Generating Epic Energy

By Liz Jansen

Generating epic energy is all about choice and how you use the resources that are at your fingertips. On a motorcycle, you alone are at the controls. How you use them determines not only how well you manage the bike, but also how well you manage the energy it generates.
Your choices influence how far you'll go on a tank of gas, the motorcycle’s reliability, and the motorcycle’s longevity. The quality of fuel that you put in the tank, keeping the engine tuned within its tolerances, and choosing actions that minimize fuel consumption are all within your control.
You and I each have a great deal of energy available to us, often accessed just by asking for it. Yet, so often in life, we feel exhausted, drained, and unfulfilled, because we think our energy isn’t lasting long enough to do what we feel needs to get done. It feels like we can never catch up.
We think that if we could only manage our time better, we’d have more energy. The truth is the secret to sustainable high energy levels, and stimulating the creative juices has to do with the choices we make.
Like our motorcycles, our energy is influenced by the nutrients, thoughts, and feelings we allow into our space. It’s influenced by how we care for ourselves and the activities we take on.
Let your motorcycle teach you how to generate energy and unleash your potential. It’s simple once you see it, and you wonder how you could have missed it for so long. The tips that follow will give you a solid start.
