How often do you feel too tired? I am not talking about any specific age either. It is not your body telling you this, it is your brain. Sports scientist Tim Noakes spent decades studying elite athletes and discovered something remarkable. He said it was your brain creating the sensation of exhaustion to protect you from danger. Have you ever been feeling like your day is dragging, that if you could only take a nap? Then out of the blue a friend calls and asks if you would like to do something fun. Your brain suddenly recalculates and decides that it is a good idea. Suddenly you aren’t tired any more. Your brain has decided in its protective mode that it is ok to no longer feel worn out. There are times that your brain will tell you that you are too tired. For example, you are at work and are being forced to make a sales call. You dislike this person and they are always difficult. Suddently your brain tells you that you are too tired and therefore cannot do it. Then you realize your job may be on the line so the threat changes. A larger threat looms in front of you so then you decide to make the call. After, you don’t feel quite so tired and maybe the call just wasn’t that bad. Fear can make us tired and scared. I am not talking about confonting a snake or alligator but the fear of lack of money, losing your job, or the possible end of a relationship. Do you ever notice these feelings and being too tired?
