Host: Bernhard Kerres | Duration: ~13 minutes

"What I think, I become.

What I become, I radiate.

What I radiate, I attract."

A coffee conversation about energy—the energy we radiate and what it does to our surroundings.

Connects to last episode: We need empty space to recharge the energy we then radiate.

THE QUESTION:

How often do we bring real energy when it matters? In the meetings that matter? In the conversations that matter?

ENERGY IN MUSIC:

"You can play the most beautiful music, but if it lacks energy, it won't carry through to 2,000 people."

Opera experience: "When I could fill the room with 2,000 people, interact with each and every one, wow. Unique. Powerful."

Keynotes: "Finding connections with hundreds of strangers I've never met through the energy I radiate—amazing."

ENERGY IN COACHING:

"Conversations where I had that energy in my listening capacity—the conversation would go very differently and often extremely deep."

Without it: "Still a good conversation. But not that extra notch which makes it one to remember."

THE SHOPPING STREET TEST:

Bernhard's locations:

• Vienna: Kärntnerstrasse
• New York: Times Square
• London: The Strand

Low energy: "People bump into you. You're invisible to them."

High energy: "People part in front of you and make space for you."

The insight: "Nothing has changed. It's the same street, the same people. The only thing which has changed is your focus and your energy."

Application: "Try that in your next dinner with a loved one, next business meeting. The difference it makes when you're completely focused, when your energy is absolutely there."

ENERGY AS PRACTICE:

"It takes practice. Nothing you can just switch on or off. Even for me, it takes regular practice."

"I use walks through Vienna or other cities to practice. Sometimes it doesn't work. That's okay."

ENERGY: THE AI DIFFERENTIATOR:

"One of the major differences is the energy. This positive tension in our bodies is like a string on an instrument. When you play with the bow, it makes a beautiful sound. That is something artificial intelligence will never reach."

80/20 rule: "In more than 80% of the time, it is the energy you bring to the room and not the content."

CONTENT IS A QUALIFIER:

"Content qualifies you to play in the competition. In the competition that really matters."

"For content, AI is fantastic. But presenting that and getting that across needs our human energy."

ENERGY IN WRITING:

"This energy transmits not only in person. It transmits when you're writing an email. Don't ask me how. Sounds esoteric. So be it."

"When you write with full, beautiful energy, it will be received differently. You won't let GPT write your email. You'll write it personally with that energy."

WHAT YOU RADIATE, YOU ATTRACT:

"When you radiate that energy, it will be reflected; it will attract other people. It will create a surrounding that is beautiful."

THIS WEEK:

Try the shopping street test:

1. Walk through a crowded area with low energy
2. Walk through with high energy
3. Notice the difference

Same street. Same people. Only your energy changes.

Then try it in your next important meeting.
