**I am one of those people who always try to go further, who accept challenges with enthusiasm and who believe that there is always a solution. Maybe both. But the reality is that, sometimes, you just can't.

This is not just something that happens to me. **We live in a world of excess: too many stimuli, distractions, challenges and demands imposed by life itself.

This is reflected in the increasing cases of burnout, a term that has become a globalized term to describe the **result of an unsustainable lifestyle.

Sure, sometimes the feeling of being exhausted arises from lack of discipline, poor time management or falling into daily distractions. But this is not always the case. Many times, in our eagerness to be the best version of ourselves, we ignore the signals our body sends us. This body, which has evolved over thousands of years, gives us clear signals (sometimes not very subtle) that it's time to stop, to slow down the pace of life for a moment....

At a time when we talk about self-discipline and perseverance, this reflection is not a counterpoint, but a reinforcement: listening to and respecting our body is a profound act of discipline, focus and self-knowledge.

There are times when true perseverance is about prioritizing rest, introspection and recovery. Rather than seeing the pause as a waste of time, I invite you to consider it as a strategic investment in our future ability to achieve our goals. Instead of viewing **the pause as a waste of time, I invite you to view it as a strategic investment in our future ability to achieve our goals.

**Without energy, there is no progress, no change, no evolution.

A hug,
