We glorify hustle, but here’s the truth — your body isn’t a machine. Rest isn’t laziness; it’s fuel. When you rest, your brain consolidates memories, repairs tissue, and balances hormones. Skipping rest sabotages your focus and mood.
Instead of pushing harder, try pushing smarter. Schedule micro-breaks. Go for short walks. Protect your weekends. When you rest intentionally, you return stronger — physically and mentally. Remember: burnout helps no one, but balance helps everyone.
