Fuel Your Heartseed: 5 Tips to Light Your Fire

How do you fuel your heartseed? If you are going to turn this world upside right and live your unique design with bold and intentional action, then you need to keep your heartseed fueled.

The Importance of a Fueled Heartseed

Have you ever tried pouring from an empty cup? It doesn’t work. Yet, so often, we try to live our purpose, serve others, and pursue BIG DREAMS while running on fumes. Eventually, the burnout catches up, the momentum fades, and we wonder why we’re stuck.

That’s why it’s essential to fuel your fire—not with coffee or sugar or the latest energy drink, but with the kind of fuel that lights up your heart.

This is heartseed fuel.

The kind that gets you out of bed in the morning. The kind that makes you want to get to doing. The kind that energizes you even when the day is hard.

What Is Heartseed Fuel?

First, heartseed fuel isn’t something you find on a shelf – in a can or a bottle. It isn’t someone else’s. Isn’t tangled in the shoulds they have poured over you.

Do you hear that ringing sound? It’s burnout calling and if you don’t pause soon, you’ll have to pick up.

Heartseed fuel is the deep-rooted energy that comes from living in alignment with your unique design. It’s knowing who you are, what you love, and how you’re meant to shine. It’s the fire that is flamed when you lean all in to your unique design.

You Can’t Run on Empty

Have you been running on empty?

• Pouring into others without refilling your spirit?
• Ticking off to-do lists without remembering your why?
• Spinning so many plates you know it’s only a matter of time before they crash?

If that sounds familiar, take this as your sign: it’s time to refuel.

You were created for more than burnout. Purpose needs power. And that power comes from heartseed fuel.

5 Ways to Fuel Your Fire

1. Remember What Energized You Before

Think about moments when you felt alive, creative, and clear. What were you doing? Who were you with? What lit you up?

Sometimes just remembering those moments can give you a quick energy boost. Better yet, repeat the experience and let that fire burn brighter.

2. Keep a Record

Track your energy highs and lows. Note the time of day, your environment, your thoughts.

What activities make you feel lighter, more focused, or joyful? Do more of that.

And pay attention to what drains you. (We’ll come back to that.)

3. Let Go of What Drains You

Be honest with yourself. What’s sucking the energy out of your day?

Is it a toxic relationship, an endless obligation, or a project you said yes to out of guilt?

Let it go. Or at least, set some boundaries.

You can’t keep fueling your purpose while carrying the weight of things that don’t belong to you.

4. Schedule Strategically

You know your energy rhythm. Use it.

Don’t waste your peak hours on tasks that drain you. Do the tough stuff when you’re at your best.

Align your schedule with your strengths, and you’ll be amazed at how much more you can accomplish—without the burnout.

5. Plan Fueling Time

Your energy is like a fire. If you don’t tend it, it will burn out.

Plan rest. Plan joy. Plan space for connection, nature, fun, creativity, prayer—whatever lifts your spirit and fuels your soul.

Don’t wait until you’re depleted to refuel. Make it a daily rhythm.

You Can’t Borrow Someone Else’s Fire

You can’t live on someone else’s fire. You can’t run on borrowed passion.

Your purpose path requires your own energy—tailored to your design.

That means:

• Knowing your rhythms.
• Honoring your needs.
• And choosing activities, people, and priorities that light you up from the inside out.

You won’t always feel it. That’s okay. But with heartseed fuel in your tank, you’ll have the strength to keep moving, even when the road gets hard.

It Starts With a Spark

So what fuels your fire? What sparks joy, clarity, courage, or hope? What helps you leap out of bed and lean into the next brave step?

That’s the fire we want to grow. When you fuel your heartseed, you reach your BIG DREAM goals.
