Definitely also guilty of overworking and pushing myself as hard as possible until I suddenly hit a health wall and had to rethink my strategy. I count myself among the blessed to mostly be on the other side of it a couple of years later, but not everyone is so lucky. When you’re a little younger and you haven’t hit any walls yet, it feels like nothing can stop you, but in hindsight those are the years to be investing in fitness for the long haul, when so many of us are burning midnight oil that we don’t realize we’re running out of. Self-discipline has to include a holistic development and ongoing maintenance of health, not just squeezing every last drop of work from yourself. Health is wealth.
