Disk jockey: ‘I don’t eat healthily to get my energy – I think it’s natural enthusiasm and being positive. I really can’t stand people with negative attitudes. I’m quite naive – I think we should all enjoy our lives, grab the moment. Enjoyment comes first. You’ve got to achieve things and set yourself various goals. I enjoy what I do and the last two years have been very exciting. In my line of business there are lots of lively young people and you can’t help being affected by that. I love tearing around the place on jobs, having a mad life. I’m very sociable. I enjoy taking photographs but I’m not sure if I’m good at it. I rush to get them printed and can’t wait to see them. I also started writing words for imaginary songs – it’s just for fun and it’s a good release for my mind when I’m doing a lot of travelling.’

Author and childrens’ TV presenter: ‘My energy comes from things I do and enjoy. I believe in what I’m doing, both at work and at home with my family, and I think that being positive about life helps. That’s why I love working with kids, they give out so much and have an inbuilt resilience. Energy is like a natural chemical, triggered off by communicating with others – just try smiling at people and feel the thrill you get when they smile back. It’s far better than feeling sorry for yourself. Although I try to eat healthily and don’t smoke or drink, I don’t have an exercise plan. The most energetic I get is running around with the kids and playing with them.’
E Deborah Moggach
Author and playwright: ‘What I love doing more than anything in the world is making a garden out of complete wasteland. I did that once. The garden was solid concrete – I smashed up all the concrete and dug in loads of soil. It was far better than any amount of workouts or tennis. The other thing that gives me energy is knowing that somebody wants to read what I’m writing – I find it difficult to write in a void. And I like sneaking into a farmer’s land or a wood. If I’m found, I say “What a wonderful wood, I didn’t know it was private property,” and so on. I like it because it’s childlike.’
А Katherine Monblot
Therapist: ‘I believe you must have an interest in and respect for what you do in life. I like to take risks and I get bored quickly, which keeps me motivated. Doing things you don’t want to do wears you out. I used to be a member of various committees and resented the demands they made on my time. You only have a certain amount of energy, so I direct it into the things that are most important to you.’
