As per the Hindu philosophy, there are three ways in which most of us dissipate our energies:
1. Indulging in the memories from the past: we recollect those events where we had mostly failed, or those were not pleasant.
Unfortunately, nothing can be done to go back.
2. Imaginary effects and results of the future that are going to arrive. In most cases we presume that we would face lot of difficulties, and we might not be very successful, and we spend hours and lot of energy.
3. Anxiety in the present, to go somewhere quickly, to finish the task quickly, will I reach the destination in time?, why the guests have not yet come, will I pass in this paper?, when will I get alright from the present illness, and scores of more things.
***
The worries of and indulgence in these three aspects sap away lot of energy from us and diminish our spirit.
***
We should be very alert not to succumb to this evil of energy depletion plot of our mind.
