One of the most powerful advantages you can have in business and life isn’t money, intelligence, or connections. It’s energy.
Because energy is influence. It’s what makes people pay attention when you speak, trust you faster, and feel drawn to you. It’s what makes investors bet on you, clients want to work with you, and women naturally gravitate toward you.
When people describe me, one of the first things they say is, “Oliver, you have insane energy.” It’s not just genetics. It’s built. And over the years, I’ve realized that high energy is a competitive advantage most people ignore.
Look at the most dominant, influential figures in business—Tony Robbins, Donald Trump, Grant Cardone. Love them or hate them, they own the room the second they walk in. Their energy is undeniable.
If you’re an entrepreneur, executive, or high performer, you probably already have a natural edge—you take personal agency over your life, thrive on competition, and despise mediocrity.
But even the best crash and burn if they don’t take care of themselves.
Signs You’re Running on Low Energy:
You wake up exhausted even after 7+ hours of sleep
Midday crashes force you to rely on coffee just to function
Your workouts feel sluggish and you struggle to push hard
Your mind feels foggy—decision-making and focus are a struggle
You feel drained in social situations and lack the same sharpness
Low energy doesn’t just make you feel worse—it makes you perform worse. It affects how you show up in business, your relationships, and life.
The good news? Your energy is within your control. And it starts with how you fuel your body.
The Best Diet for High Energy
Most people don’t think about how food = fuel.
But the truth is, what you eat determines how much energy you have.
Your diet can either:
Gives you stable energy all-day
Leave you crashing and sluggish
Core Principles of The High Energy Diet:
1) High-Protein, Nutrient-Dense Meals
Protein keeps blood sugar stable, prevents cravings, and fuels recovery. Low protein = low dopamine = low motivation.
Best sources:
Lean meats (chicken, beef, turkey)
Eggs & Greek yogurt (rich in B vitamins & amino acids)
Whey protein (fast-digesting, great for busy schedules)
2) Smart Carbs for Sustained Energy
Not all carbs are bad.
The problem is refined carbs (bread, pasta, sugar) that spike blood sugar and lead to crashes.
Best sources:
Oats & rice (slow-digesting, steady energy)
Fruits (natural sugar + fiber prevents spikes)
Sweet potatoes (packed with micronutrients & fiber)
3) Healthy Fats for Brain Power
Your brain and hormones need fat to function. The right fats boost cognition and keep testosterone levels optimized.
Best sources:
Olive oil & avocados (great for heart & brain health)
Fatty fish (salmon, sardines) (high in Omega-3s for mental sharpness)
Egg yolks & grass-fed butter (supports hormone production)
4) Hydration is Non-Negotiable
Dehydration = fatigue. Most people are walking around chronically dehydrated and don’t even realize it.
What to do:
Drink 3-4L of water daily (minimum)
Use electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium) to prevent crashes
Limit diuretics (too much coffee, alcohol) which deplete hydration
5) Caffeine – Used Correctly
Caffeine is powerful—but if misused, it wrecks your adrenal system. Most people abuse it and end up fatigued and wired at the same time.
Best approach:
One coffee in the morning(resets cortisol)
Pair with L-Theanine (removes jitters, extends focus)
Cycle off caffeine every 6-8 weeks to reset tolerance
When you dial in your nutrition, you’ll already feel 20-30% more energy within days. But if you want to go next level, adding the right supplements can push you even further.
The Ultimate Energy Supplement Stack
This is the exact supplement stack I use personally to maximize energy, stress resilience, and mental sharpness.
It helps me stay in peak shape while running a business and performing at a high level every day.
✅ Magnesium Glycinate – Enhances sleep & recovery by relaxing muscles and calming the nervous system. Most high performers are deficient. Take before bed.
✅ Vitamin B12 – Essential for energy & focus. If you’re low, expect brain fog, fatigue, and low motivation. Found in animal products, but most people don’t get enough.
✅ Vitamin D3 (High Potency) – Boosts testosterone, mood, and immunity. If you don’t get direct sunlight daily, supplementing is a must.
✅ L-Theanine – Calms the mind while improving focus. Best when paired with caffeine—it smooths out the jitters and prolongs the focus window.
✅ Creatine Monohydrate – Not just for gym rats. Boosts cognitive function, ATP energy, and endurance. One of the most well-studied and effective supplements out there.
✅ Ashwagandha (KSM-66) – Lowers cortisol (stress hormone), enhances recovery, and optimizes testosterone. Great for handling high-pressure environments.
✅ Rhodiola Rosea – Fights fatigue, improves endurance, and sharpens mental clarity. Used by Russian soldiers and athletes for performance under stress.
This stack isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about building a body and mind that can handle stress, long hours, and peak performance without crashing.
Optimize Your Energy, Optimize Your Life
Most people accept low energy as normal. They blame age, stress, or a “busy life.”
But the reality is: Energy is a choice.
You can either operate in survival mode—dragging yourself through the day, burning out, and never reaching your full potential…
Or you can take control and unlock limitless energy—where you dominate your work, feel mentally sharp, and perform at your best every day.
The ones who win in business, relationships, and life are the ones who treat their energy as their greatest asset.
High energy isn’t luck. It’s engineered.
And the ones who do? They don’t just work harder. They outlast everyone else.
