Opening sample

First pass from the workshop. Not the ending.

You sit at your desk, the fluorescent lights casting a pale glow across your papers. Your eyes scan the screen, but your mind feels foggy. You've been here for hours, and yet, the task seems never-ending. You wonder if anyone else feels like this, like the weight of the world is pressing down on you, even when you're just trying to get through the day. Understanding your energy landscape is the first step towards managing it. It's about recognizing when you're in the red and when you're in the green. Many of us live in a state of constant low-level stress, unaware of the toll it takes.
