Energy: The Core of Life

Have you ever experienced those moments when you feel completely exhausted? You sleep, wake up, eat, yet fatigue persists and seems to increase each day. This is a clear sign of energy imbalance.

What is energy?

By definition, energy is a physical quantity that represents our capacity to perform work — whether to move, transform, or create something concrete. In the universe, the total amount of energy is conserved and never lost, only transformed.

Based on this concept, we understand that through energy we can materialize our objectives. Time and energy are the only two true assets we possess, as it’s through their conscious use that we achieve tangible results.

The capitalist system puts us in an interesting position: we’re born without material resources, but we have the possibility to build wealth throughout our lives. It’s not a perfect system, but it offers real opportunities for growth. That’s why we must be extremely careful about what, when, and where we employ our energy — once spent, we must wait for the recovery period.

The Fundamental Trinity: Sleep, Nutrition, and Rest

Quality Sleep

Sleep is much more than simply “closing your eyes.” Have you ever slept for hours and woken up feeling unrefreshed? On the other hand, have you taken a quick nap and awakened completely revitalized? The difference lies in sleep quality.

Personally, I don’t adapt well to the traditional 8 hours straight — I wake up sluggish and yawning a lot. I believe each person should discover their ideal amount of sleep hours. What really works:

Routines I recommend:

• Establish a fixed bedtime
• One hour before bed, avoid screens (phone, TV, computer)
• Keep your room as dark as possible
• Control the room temperature

Intelligent Nutrition

In 2024, I’ve been experimenting with a different approach to eating: I significantly increased my consumption of vegetables and greens, reducing red meat to just twice a week. Combining this with plenty of water, the results were remarkable:

• Fewer injuries and post-workout pain
• Skin with a more youthful appearance
• Considerably higher energy and disposition

My current strategy:

• Avoid processed foods as much as possible
• Take vitamins when necessary
• Drink alcohol only socially
• Exercise three times a week

You don’t need to be a bodybuilder, but having nutritional common sense already represents great progress.

True Mental Rest

I work 10 hours a day on the computer, so in my free time I prioritize activities that disconnect me: reading, movies, series, chess, music, and walks with my dog.

An important discovery: when I go out to walk, exercise, or seek contact with nature, I leave my phone at home. Years in corporate environments taught me that electronic excess is mentally exhausting.

Practical tips for mental rest:

• Remove unnecessary phone notifications (keep only bank, SMS, and phone)
• Set aside daily time to think without distractions
• Reconnect with nature — we came from it and forgot this
• Practice activities that take you out of your usual environment

The Formula: Energy + Time = Results

Now that you understand how to manage time and energy, it’s time for action. But here comes a fundamental concept: precision.

The difference between a common shooter and a sniper is simple: the shooter hits 4 out of 10 shots, while the sniper hits 9 out of 10. The secret? Absolute precision.

The Danger of Frantic Action

Imagine you set a goal and, in the desperate search for results, spend all your chips doing random activities. In two months, you stop. Why? Because you spent energy without planning, producing lots of movement but little result. Without proper planning, your actions become reactive, and you become just another face in the crowd.

The Importance of Planning

Invest time and energy in the idea first. Polish it until you see a light at the end of the tunnel. This website I’m creating was born 4 months ago as a simple idea. I spent over 120 days refining and giving shape to the concept.

You don’t need to be first or biggest. If you can make a difference in some people’s lives, you’ve found your starting point.

Practical example: want to invest in Bitcoin because of the surge? Without deep study and an idea refinement process, you’ll probably lose money. When tough times come, you’ll quit — because you don’t really know why you started.

The Universal Law of Rewards

The world rewards those who create real value — whether creating something new, investing intelligently, or simply doing something useful. Once you consistently employ time and energy and package this over years, the return tends to always be positive.

The Bottom Line

The formula is almost magical in its simplicity: rest adequately, eat correctly, and maintain peace of mind.

Using this combination, you’ll find answers to questions you carry within yourself. We have more power than we can use, but sometimes we need to calibrate our energy to access it.

Often, incredible opportunities pass right in front of us, but we’re not prepared to see them. There are more opportunities in this world than we like to admit.

The good news? You only need to get one right!
