[00:35] – About Simon Alexander Ong
- Simon is a personal development entrepreneur.
- He is a coach and a public speaker.
- Simon is also a best-selling author of a book titled, “Energize.”
[03:23] – Tell me a little bit about your book. What was your hypothesis?
- I wrote the book when I reflected on my career.
- There was a point in the second job I had after Lehman Brothers collapse when I experienced burnout.
- I had this feeling of being lost. I was drained mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually and when I reflected on how I got from that point to where I am today, I realized it was because I started to focus on elevating my own energetic state.
- That began with physical energy because when I was in that job I got little sleep. I did not eat well, and I did not move my body very often so that became the first aspect of energy that I had to address. As I started to address that I realized that that was the foundation of a good life because if you put it this way the healthy individual will have many hopes, dreams, and goals, but the sick have only one.
- I realized at that point that if you don’t have good health you can’t do much else.
- I was then able to focus on my mental energy, emotional energy, and spiritual energy.
[10:22] – How does one identify which is the most productive time of day for each one of us?
- It can be something as simple as tracking your energy for a period of a few weeks.
- Let’s say, we split the day into the early morning, late morning, early afternoon, late afternoon, early evening, and evening at different points for the day. Just jot down on a scale of zero to ten how energized you feel, and that will start to give you some insight as to what your average energy rhythm is like throughout a given week.
- The next part is to then listen to your body that will give you a first step if you will to understand at what points of the day am I most energized, at which points am I not so energized, and then the art part is just being able to listen to what your body is telling us.
- In a world that is only getting faster, slowing down is a superpower as it allows us to speed up because many of us are out there collecting dots, we are busy, we are listening to something, we are watching something, we’re always in the process of doing something.
- If you go back in history, what we notice is that it is in those moments of disconnection that we actually have our greatest insights, and this is part of speeding up.
