Balancing Work and Physical Well Being in a Digital Age

source
We live in a world where people ignore their health at a young age to chase money and end up losing the money at old age to take care of their health... To some people, it is ignorance that causes it; they are not well informed of the consequences of the actions of their youthful days
The set of people I pity the most is:
Smokers: Some people attach their motivation to smoking; they won't be able to do anything right until they smoke. It is written boldly on the pack that smoking is injurious to health, yet people still take it. Could it be that they don't read, or they just don't care...
Most people addicted to smoking don't attain their full life span due to health problems like lung and heart diseases, and many others... It is crazy how some people know this yet still smoke substances.
For those of us who cherish our work more than our health, I won't blame us... The fear of hunger and poverty is what makes us overwork ourselves, but then, we can balance things in a way that we can earn and also take good care of our health.

After what happened to me last year and the year before, I have been taking good care of myself and not letting work or anything else get in the way of maintaining a good, healthy lifestyle.
Before I could stay awake all night working, truth be told, I am more productive and earn better at midnight, but it comes with a price, which is my health, so I no longer do that. Most of the time, I sleep before 11 pm now, and on some days, I could be awake till 2 a.m but rare.
Being a remote worker, the sedentary lifestyle is not helping my health, so I change my routine, I wake up early to do some home work out before turning on my laptop and I also make sure to stroll out daily even when I don't have anything to go and get outside, this new lifestyle helps in burning calories, I also maintain my diet, no more overeating as I don't want to become Obese, there is so much disadvantage to being Obese.
Recently, I got a dumb bell of 20kg, and I have been using it every morning and night. This year, 2026, is one that I plan to build my career and work on my health; there is no leaving one for the other, I am coming for everything!

When it comes to work and health, there no one that’s more important than the other, and they both work hand in hand. You need to be healthy to be able to work, and you need to work to be able to take good care of your health.
so correct!
Es muy acertado lo que expones. Muchas personas valoran la salud cuando es demasiado tarde. Esas rutinas que mencionas forman parte del verdadero crecimiento. Mis felicitaciones 👏
It seems you became health conscious.. that's good. I think in this present world most of is can't balance the worklife and health at a same time.
yea, I dont want to spend my old age nursing my health when I can prevent the damage now.
We normally assume that nothing is affecting us by over doing certain things
until we see the unhealthy part of our bodies then we can think right.
Most of us dont care about our health until it fails us.
Oooooh, a very bad situation that has been leading many to their untimely graves. Leaving loved ones under a forever pain and bitterness.
Some smokers will tell you that they know some smokers from when they were very young but they are still alive, so smokers are not liable to die young.
lol, this is true, I don't argue with such people, they would be the one to suffer the repercussion in the future
Woah, lessons learnt adjustments made for better work lufe balance and well-being.
Thank you for sharing those experiences 🙏
It is very bad for one to avoid his health just because of work.
Huhm, most of us today feel we don't need rest, until our body forces us too, and it shouldn't be.
Thanks for sharing.
