How To Avoid Overworking When Sick?

Pushing yourself too hard when you’re feeling under the weather can backfire. I learned this firsthand after ignoring early signs of illness, continuing to work, travel, and film without rest. The result?

Total burnout—knocked out for an entire day.

If you feel a cough or cold coming on, don’t power through it. Take a step back, skip the gym, and get the rest your body needs.

Short-term sacrifice prevents long-term setbacks.

Work hard, but be smart about recovery—it’ll save you more time in the long run. [PPH]
