Gurudev, what is meant by the rise and fall of energy within us, and what effect does one experience because of this?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

When energy rises in you, then there is joy and enthusiasm. When your energy levels go down, then a person feels dejected, like a punctured flat tyre. This is what happens.
When energy rises in you, then you feel good and everyone around you seems nice. When energy is lost, then you feel that everyone is good for nothing. You lose enthusiasm.
