Ep 17. Pursuit of struggle, W/L Balance, & Body-Listening

Pursuit of struggle I don't know what it was, but ever since I first took 5 courses in a single semester, I got invested in challenging my capacity and capabilities. Physiologically, our bodies were built to grow against gravity (sth I learned in my Kinesiology course), so challenge yourself. Trust me, it's worth it. W/L Balance I'm probably the worst person to ask advice from when it comes to actually following through with balancing work and life. When you find sth you enjoy doing, it can be hard to stop yourself from going 110%, but sometimes, resetting helps clear the mind. It's still a learning curve from me, so here's how I see it. Body-Listening Your body is a highly complex, coordinated, and magnificent system, and at times, we tend to take its capabilities for granted. There's a reason why you might ache a bit after sitting for too long, or your eyes get watery after a long essay-writing session. Your body needs a break or a stretch! Learning how to listen to your body is the best way to optimize how you function in your day to day.
