Good morning my fellow Steemians and friends of the blockchain,
I really hope you all had a great night rest. Sincerely, I do. I really wish you did.
Why I really hope you had a great night rest
A good rest affects everything you do in life. It, really, affects virtually everything you engage in.
A tired body makes a tired mind. No one can perform at his best without giving his or body the best in terms of rest. You need rest; I need rest: we all need rest!
My personal experience about the importance of rest and how it affects everything
I can remember vividly how I felt. I still can remember it as if it was just yesterday: I was embarrassed at work by my superior.
You cannot cheat nature.
Am sure you have had the popular quote that: "you cannot cheat nature", but now, am here to advise you "NOT TO EVEN GIVE IT A TRY". Never try to cheat nature because, if you try to cheat nature, nature will cheat on you, too. And guess what? Nature always wins!
Now, as I was saying about "my personal experience", I had been very busy at the time and had no time to have enough rest nor sleep. I, that normally went to bed by 10pm, now went to bed at midnight, say: 1am or 2am which had a drastic effect on my health and made me sleepy during duty at work. I can still remember how I would be too tired to teach my pupils and just give them work to keep them busy while I find a way to rest a while.
How I was embarrassed....
My habit of sleeping late continued until I was embarrassed in a meeting with my fellow teachers. I can still remember how the Head Teacher screamed at me to keep my eyes opened because I was dosing off during the meeting. I was really a big embarrassed as all the teachers laughed on amusement. I really felt ashamed of myself.
Why did that happen to me? Simply because: I haven't been resting as I should. (Am sure you must have had one or two personal experiences of how bad it is to "deliberately or unknowingly" avoid taking rest.
IF YOU AVOID TAKING REST; REST TAKES YOU BY SURPRISE.
I was really embarrassed on that faithful day, and I regretted not creating time for rest.
Even if you have no time for rest, create it.
There are different types of rests one could have daily: this rest are very important to us as individuals because our whole functioning as humans is affected by how much rests we need and how much of it we get.
On a Final Note, always remember that no matter how busy you think you are; you must create time for rest. Because rest is a very important thing in life. And stop saying you are too busy so you "can't offord to take a break", because the truth is: you can't offord NOT TO take a break. So, my dear Steemians, create time for rest!

muy cierto, el descanso es sumamente importante, :( aunque se te escapa de las manos al tenes deberes que hacer, nada justifica el no descansar.
