Take a Break
Before Your Body Forces You To

Take A Break Before You Need a Break
Since 2022, I’ve been creating content of all kinds.
In July of 2022, I started posting on X (formerly twitter).
I’ve added 5 more social media platforms since then.
I post on Youtube 2x a week, instagram 4x a week, Linkedin 2-4x a week, Threads/twitter almost daily since 2023 and I still maintain that consistency (Don’t ask about tiktok cause I can’t stand that platform).
It can be absolutely daunting, so much to the point that my body told my mind to take a break, and thats what I did this weekend.
For the first time in a long time, I did not do a single ounce of work, and it felt amazing.
I wish I didn’t have to rely on my own body to tell me to do so, I should’ve taken a break weeks ago.
I love creating content everyday for God to see and impacting thousands of people in some way, shape, or form.
But sometimes, enough can be enough.
We have to remember that God created earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th.
He didn’t have to stop there, but he chose to stop there.
Choose and plan out your rest days, because resting is also a form of productivity.
No car can go from A to B on an empty take. Fill your tank up first before you take on tasks.
You’ll be better off in the log run because of it.
