Tired are you?

Tired why wait...grab a .... the add that I love dearly but know in the end that being tired means something that needs me to do more than eat or take an energy drink.  For four years I worked more than very hard.  You could say I became a workaholic. There are more medical and actual reasons why we should not live in endless exhaustion.  Living a life in exhaustion can be thought of, when we look at it for what it is, as self mutilation.  Why such a harsh statement.  If you knowingly continue to hurt yourself in a way that leaves scares and damages your body you are self mutilating.  All things that exhaustion over a prolonged period of life will do.  The irony is it doesn't need to even be years to be harmful.  Some of you are thinking am I a candidate or someone I know, and if you live in America I'm sure you can point out someone who is.  Though overworking one's self has no limitations or restrictions.  My father has always told me that, "too much of anything is bad for you."  As we've all heard life is either a scale or some sort of balancing act in which we have to keep things level.  Like resting and working.  Don't get caught in the hype that exhaustion is something that you can just put aside every time you have a deadline or need more money.  Take the time to look for better solutions to your life that don't cost you your life or that precious money you are working yourself so hard to get.  Just like being a drug addict or any other kind of addiction pushing your body to the limit can become a way of trill seeking.  Maybe your off is the energy drink or even the healthy ways you've learned to regain your energy.  All I'm saying is we were made to sleep and when we don't or don't get enough we hurt ourselves.  It's not even the hurt that is the issue it's what we loose and aren't able to reclaim that is.  What have you lost to either chronic or occasional exhaustion.  Stop life threatening habits before they stop you.
