Serious question with equally, if not grave, consequences.
My default is STRESS MODE. I don't why, but it is. I'm lying, I do know. Half of it is this continuous uphill battle to do more in life than exist. The other, well, you'd have to stand in my shoes to understand.
It's like being public enemy #1 - without ever having done a thing wrong but show up in this farce of a world authentically.
Anyhoo, pushing your body to its breaking point to achieve a goal is one thing. Neglecting to care for yourself - heart, mind, body, and soul, well, that's a recipe for disaster. I must be a masochist for disaster. After any medical episode or traumatic event in my life, I'll do better, I tell myself but don't. Before you judge me with those condescending eyes, take off the t-shirt saying, 'I DO THAT TOO.'
Just a friendly reminder and sage advice, Don't work yourself into bad health thinking accomplishments and achievements will be worth it.
Yes, it feels amazing at first, but all the money, fame, accomplishments and achievements mean nothing if YOU can't be fully present to enjoy it. Always test your limits, realizing limits are an illusion. Just come back to reality when your body asks you to.
Gotta go. It's my body on the other line requiring my undivided attention.
