Do you know the feeling of self pressure? How do you define self pressure? I define self pressure as something that you require or expect on yourself. You can pressure yourself in different life situations or example in school, friends or hobby. I think self pressure could be great. I need self pressure so that I can reach goals, get better, work with more concentration and work faster. Without any self pressure I would be lazy. But it isn't healthy when self pressure makes our life worse. So don’t ignore the pressure. Don't ignore symptoms of your body. When you have the feeling you should take a break, have a break. I'm not sure if you know the feeling of self pressure and I don't know how self pressure looks like for your case. But for example when you worked hard the whole week for school and you went late to bed and woke up super early. Take the time and go to bed early or sleep off the next day. It could be healthy and helpful to have a break between your activities and take a rest for a moment. Instead of going forward and ignoring all the signals that your body sending you. If you ignore all signals you will have probably one day a big problem. Where you have to take a break for a longer term. In case of one day. I know a person who worked hard for 3 years .He didn't take any breaks. The result
was that he was burnt out and depressed. He only worked for his goals. His goal was to get a 0.8 average. He got it. Then he started to study psychology and build a business. He Got it. He achieved all his goals but he didn't take any breaks. So the result was that he had to take a huge break. But self pressure doesn't have to look like this. I also can see it by myself in small situations. For example when I felt sick, I had to go to the gym because my goal is it to go 4 times in the week to the gym. But I knew it would be better when I go to the gym when I'm completely healthy again. But I saw that I can achieve my goal and so I went to the Gym. The result was that I was really sick the next day and I couldn’t go to the gym for a longer term. Emily P
