Energized Mood Being Very Energized while out of the home is another tricky one, as there are fewer options that are commonly found in-game. Sims that have the Active Trait get Energized at times. If you want this Emotion readily, you will need the Fitness Skill to make it easier:
Sims who are energized have a reduced energy decay. This gives them 25-40% more energy for every hour they are energized, depending on whether they are Energized or Very Energized. Ideal mood for Careers was removed in a recent patch, so because of this I believe that Energized is now the best mood for your Sims when they're at work in a typical rabbit hole career like athletic or business. Work from home careers are certainly different but may yet benefit from this mood.

My sim has the trait that makes it so you can make any emotion painting whenever you want, but I don't see an energized option. Do I have to get energized or...?
