This Will Change the Energy Around You ⚡

Hey, you! Yeah, you.

Before you scroll past, let’s shake things up today. I know these emails hit your inbox daily, but today’s different. Why? Because we’re talking about something that can literally change the atmosphere around you.

Today's Vibe: Contagious Positivity

Positivity isn’t just about smiling at strangers or throwing around motivational quotes. It’s a force—an energy—that spreads. The way you show up in the world influences the people around you. And today, we’re going to explore how to make positivity go viral (in the best way possible).

Today’s Mini-Challenge: Be the Energy You Want to Attract

Step 1: Lead with Gratitude

Start your day by telling someone why you appreciate them. A quick text, a voice note, or an old-school handwritten note—your choice. The key? Be specific. “Hey, I really appreciate how you always listen when I rant about my wild ideas.” Small actions, big impact.

Step 2: Smile (Yes, Really)

Sounds simple, right? But science backs this up—smiling triggers dopamine and serotonin, not just in you but in the people who see it. Give it a shot today. Flash a smile at a stranger, a coworker, or even your pet. Watch how the energy shifts.

Step 3: Spread the Good Vibes

Compliment someone. Hold the door open. Share a win (yours or someone else’s). Acts of kindness create ripples. The positivity you send out will come back to you, often in ways you never expect.

Step 4: Protect Your Energy

Positivity is powerful, but so is negativity. Avoid energy drainers. Unfollow, mute, or step back from people who constantly bring negativity into your space. Your energy is valuable—guard it.

Story Time: The Ripple Effect

Meet Jake. Jake used to be the quiet guy at work—headphones in, barely engaging. One day, he decided to change things up. He started greeting people, complimenting coworkers, and bringing donuts on Mondays (instant office hero move). Over time, people started reciprocating. Team meetings became lighter, collaboration improved, and guess what? Jake’s boss noticed. That small shift in energy led to a promotion. All because he decided to be the positive force in the room.

Positivity is contagious. Jake caught it, spread it, and got rewarded for it. You can do the same.

The Science of Positivity

Your Brain on Positivity:

When you engage in positive interactions, your brain releases oxytocin (the bonding hormone), making you feel more connected to others.

The Power of Mirror Neurons:

Ever notice how when someone yawns, you yawn too? That’s your mirror neurons in action. The same thing happens with emotions. Your positivity can literally infect others.

Physical Benefits:

• Lower Stress: Positivity reduces cortisol levels, making you feel more relaxed.

• Stronger Immune System: Studies show that happier people get sick less often. Wild, right?

• More Energy: A positive mindset actually increases your stamina and motivation.

Mental Health Superpowers:

• Resilience: A positive outlook helps you bounce back from setbacks.

• Increased Creativity: When you’re in a good mood, your brain is more open to new ideas and solutions.

• Better Relationships: People gravitate toward positive energy—become that magnet.

Quick Positivity Hacks:

• Change Your Inner Dialogue: Instead of “I have to,” say “I get to.” (“I get to work on this project” > “I have to do this project.”) Small shift, big impact.

• Celebrate Small Wins: Did something go right today? Acknowledge it. Your brain will thank you.

• Consume Good Energy: Listen to uplifting music, watch something that makes you laugh, and follow people who inspire you.

The Daily Self-Question:

How can I make one person’s day better today?

Think about it. Just one action. That’s all it takes to start the ripple effect.

Tip for Success:

Positivity isn’t about ignoring reality—it’s about choosing to focus on what you can control. And the way you show up in the world? That’s entirely up to you.
