Play Your Crescendo

There are times when you need to find your boost, that thing that makes you ramp up your energy and flip the switch on your motivation. I call it the ‘crescendo’ because it can be like a piece of music that gets louder and more engaging.

  • Pick a song that you love. When it gets to the part that’s ramping up the energy, turn up the volume and sing along. For example, I still love Springsteen’s Born to Run (“One, two, three, four, Highways strung with broken heroes on a last chance power drive…”). You get the point.

  • When you feel that surge in the music, whether you’re singing or listening, notice the impact it has on your body. Music is a vibration and something that you can often feel as a surge of power inside your body. Notice it. Embrace it. Harness it.

  • If you don’t have a song that you love, then think of something that you really love to do and really commit to the experience. I also love sculpting and pottery and feel a kind of power when I’m in that creative zone.

  • Whatever you use as your ‘crescendo,’ lean into it. Enjoy it. Absorb it. Then use it to fuel your determination and energize your third chakra power.
