Where do we store the energy?

Nikolay Mokhov, author from the Dark Side of Business

— How do you gather the energy?" - readers have been asking this question for four years. And recently we couldn't stand it and responded with a little sarcasm:

- Excuse me, but where are you going to store it? — we wrote in the chat.

"Mmmmm..." the person responded. And then we gave in to memories and fantasies:

— There was an article somewhere... Something about an energy piggy bank… Maybe an energy bath?...

Let's note something. Let's just note that when it comes to discussing who drained someone's energy, who's a vampire, and who dominates, people love that. There is no practical use in such discussions. Describing the past victories of strangers, we do not move anywhere in the present. A wide man said: the war for the past is pointless… And so the question "How and who gained energy?" is secondary to the question — "Where do we keep it?".

Energy holes in what? Where? To have holes you need a vessel from which the liquid will flow out. However, if there is no vessel, then there is no place for holes to appear

Here is an example. There was a talented businessman. He sells well and closes deals for huge amounts. At the same time, he never has money. He sells something for millions, and in a couple of months he has to ask friends to lend him some money. Everyone has seen such examples. You just need to look more closely. Some might need to look in the mirror.

And how many stories about rogues who pulled off scams, and after years, became beggars? And don't talk about karma. We are discussing a simple physical law. Money is energy. If there is no place to store money, then a person will never become rich. And there will be constant problems with energy. No matter how much one got in the moment, if there is nothing to hold it in - the rain of gold passes, the water soaks into the ground, and the wind carries the gold dust away… And there is nothing left. Drought. Emptiness. And the cabbage doesn’t grow.

And then I heard a song: "I just have energy holes, I need to close them...

The Simple Person's Nightmare

I am a complex person. And there exist simple people. Simple people have it really bad right now. A simple person is faced with a crisis and doesn't know what to do with themselves. What is a crisis for them? They used to work as a fitness trainer, and now they can't. They have to rebuild their whole life, but how? Their slightly more advanced friends and relatives tell them:

“Well, you can do workouts through Skype!”

Dentist's Spartakiade. Or the life of Spartacus

— I used to run like a wolf! I looked at everything in a skirt. And now?.. — says Sparta-cus — a strong man in his 60s.

— The computer is frozen — I can't do an X-ray. Let's go for a smoke, — Spartacus is the dentist of dreams. Even in the middle of treatment, he can offer a smoke break on his balcony, the way to which is through the hallway with a shelving unit. On the shelves are Soviet books on dentistry with new-fashioned magazines...

Heavenly place

Far away from the yacht, closer to the shore, tourists were surfing the sea on water skis and jet skis. Children were wading in shallow water, and you could watch them from the little white house on the slope. From this house, you could hear the laughter of the vacationists, the squeals of the children and the roars of the engines. The housing in this area was blatantly called the “Heavenly place”. And in this heavenly place, an older couple was discussing their plans for the day:

Corporations and Attempting to Escape Them

If you think there’s no one behind the success of the latest star, rich businessman, or even talented writer... Then you should probably go to the eye doctor. There’s definitely something wrong with your eyesight.

“We are dwarfs standing on the shoulders of giants,” as a very wise man once put it. It’s never been more true: all modern achievements resulted from joint efforts, not from prideful individualism.
