Rate Your Energy

Remember when you were a child and bursting with energy? What a difference a few decades make! Most adults feel tired some of the time. But often we do the wrong things in our efforts to regain energy.

  1. I often feel tired by mid-afternoon, so I give myself energy by having coffee, soda or a candy bar.
  2. I use my evenings to recuperate from my busy day, and usually watch TV or lie down early.
  3. I sleep eight hours on most nights.
  4. I feel under stress more than usual lately.
  5. I'm so busy that I have no time to exercise.
