Be Determined, Not Stubborn

"Be Determined. Not Stubborn."


I still have a long way to go, and looking back, so far, so good, I've come a long way that I never expected. In half a decade of working abroad, two years were spent, and are still being spent, grinding online. It's difficult to carry two plates at once, especially if one of them is heavier.

Something has changed in these past years of online grinding, not financially, but physically. I miss the days when I could easily come up with topics to write about and could write several articles in a single day. But, since I've been handling two platforms at once, in addition to my real-world job, my body seems to crave more rest, which I don't always get because I need to keep grinding.

If my body could speak, it would have scolded me a million times, because even my downtime is mingled with side hustles. At the end of the day, I resemble a wilted plant that hasn't been watered in years.

I could definitely hear my body's complaints if it could speak. But, because I'm stubborn, I'll pretend I'm not hearing anything. We are stubborn, aren't we? I had a brief respite yesterday afternoon, allowing me to write more. But what exactly did I do? Instead, I grind.

A signal appears to have been sent up to my brain. "Stop it, just rest," it says. But then my phone appeared in front of me, and the distraction began. My body fought against my mind, but the body won. Finally, I picked up my phone and began juggling two accounts on these two platforms, read and Hive.

Even though my mind told me not to, I felt compelled to write more. I was a little disoriented because there was a contradiction from one side of the party, so I kept juicing my mind, but no fluid came out. That, however, is absurd. To clarify, I couldn't think of a good post to create until three in the afternoon. As a result, the two hours from one in the afternoon were squandered.

I'm so stubborn that even though there was an opportunity to rest, I chose to grind again. I wanted to rest and not work at times, but I couldn't. It entirely depends on me whether I will impose strict self-discipline or not to meet any health goals I set for myself this year. And every now and then, I'd ask myself, "Am I really doing the right thing?" Of course, the answer is evident: I'm not doing it right.


I don't want to stop because I still have a long way to go. We all don't want, do we? However, do you think we'll be able to reach our desired destinations if we keep going without resting? This is a constant reminder to me, and probably to you as well, not to quit, but to rest as much as possible. But be determined, not stubborn to be able to do this. We must pay close attention to our bodies before they stop listening to us. Furthermore, nothing can be accomplished if it is compromised, and our efforts will be worthless.

This is yet another random post generated by a random word generator. Again, if you can't think of a topic to write about, you can find inspiration here.

Ako na stubborn thin at this instance, Ate. Relate na relate sa need muna ng break kasi baka unknowingly, naa-abuse ko na sarili ko pero ako? Sige pa din kaka-aral & hustle. Wala ngang dayoff talaga ey ~ gusto ng katawan ko pero ayaw ng isip at mga pangangailangan ko sa buhay. 🤭

That is the truth. Sometimes our body is week to continue, but instead of taking a break, we still want to continue because we have a target to meet or we been interested in what we are doing. But still on still we need to take a break.

We should make our body as our priority even if we really wanted to do things in a small amount of time yet we need to rest

It's better we listen to our body than the other way round. Though everyone is striving to be great in what they do, but giving yourself time to rest is the best as we can return to what we are doing later.

Wow...I really do think you should try to listen to your body most times to avoid a breakdown cos when it comes you can do nothing to stop it.

What's funny is I don't listen to this advice I'm giving you sometimes. I guess we're all just the same

Rest if very important. If you fall sick it would be like a "more haste, less speed" situation, and then you wouldn't be able to write at all.
