And yet, after all that it seems one must ask, “If all this new found energy is being released upon our world at one time, where’s it all going? Why are we more desperate for said energy than ever?”

Does it not seem that if it were true that energy punch, potions and pills actually provided additional energy that we’d get to a point of saturation—where enough’s enough? I mean, you can only put so many gallons in your tank before it’s just pouring on to the ground.

These thoughts have me puzzling like the Grinch in my son’s favorite, the Dr. Seuss classic, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, when the Grinch, standing feet cold in the snow, hears the voices of the Who’s all signing below and he puzzles, “What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?”

So… What if ENERGY doesn’t come from a store? What if ENERGY, perhaps, takes a little bit more?

The questions and confusion about AUTHENTIC ENERGY are considerable but that didn’t stop myself and my ENERGY coach, John Allen Mollenhauer, the creator of Performance Lifestyle Solutions from taking them all head-on yesterday.

Here’s a 2 minute clip from The Story of Authentic Energy Part 1: “What the recent financial meltdown can teach us all about energy management.”
