Adequate rest is essential in life and understanding that fact about life is the best to way to ensure healthy living, rest helps the body physically, mentally, psychologically and emotionally, our body responds directly to the way we treat it and that means in every action there is equal and opposite reaction as propounded by newton in his third law of motion..
This means that if we should overwork our body and still deprive it of rest, then we are bound to have nervous breakdown along the way and also if we give our body adequate rest when it needs it, then our body system will respond actively to work whenever it is needed at all times thanks to the adequate and maximum rest it has had prior to that time...
There is need for adequate rest especially when it comes to the well being of oneself, I didn't understand this beautiful fact until I was forced to take adequate rest after a brief sickness hit me about two weeks ago and I was forced to go on a leave of absence for good one week...
What happened and how it happened was the question I asked myself when I became sick, I couldn't tell any of my friends both off the blockchain and on the blockchain because they all told me to go slow...
I was adamant and strong headed until sickness set in and I was forced to take one week leave off every of my activities on the blockchain and off the chain to focus more on my health and to have adequate rest...
The main reason I had this nervous breakdown was because I took every of my hive activities too serious and that to the extreme level that it ended up having an effect on my health, I was chasing a lot of things every week and that made me neglect my health in the course of achieving all...
Engagement is something that I am now addicted too since I found the hive engagement league and how beneficial it is to me as a newbie and also as a hivean who is aspiring to become a whale 🐋 someday with millions of accumulated HIVE POWER to support every newbie who makes quality contents on the hive blockchain...
I made up my mind to never miss the TOP 5 spot every week on the hive Engagement league weekly and because of my determination I was active in achieving that and it was a success until sickness set in...
Apart from the hive engagement league, I was also part of the hive naija weekend hangout which hold every Friday to Sunday night, I found this beautiful hangout also and I started taking part in it to boost my engagement record and also to always win the prizes every week as one of the best engager...
This hive naija weekly hangout is meant for only the Nigerian families, it is a place where all the Nigerians on hive meet weekly to talk about life and things and so far so good 
As I have said in the above paragraphs that being sick about two weeks ago made me take a sick leave and thus I couldn't do anything called engagement on the blockchain for a week, I was absent in all hangout for a good one week and that was because I needed enough rest because I was slowly starting to shutdown and before total breakdown I needed to take some time off to recuperate and that was what lead to my one week leave...
Alongside me my driving force was also absent, she was very occupied offline and that made her engagement level a little bit weak which had an effect on her position as the number 1 on the hive engagement league for some weeks and I think now she is fully back to take over and thus make everything on the blockchain fun for everyone...
Well well well my one week leave ended last two weeks Sunday and I resumed my daily activities as usual but this time with a plan and a time table...
I started my engagement record on Sunday and now I am back fully to claim my title and position on the hive engagement league, the week I was absent, I was 59th on the hive engagement league and last week I needed to buckle up to take my top 5 spot once again and guess what guys I am back to my position...
My absence was felt by my friends on the hive naija weekend hangout and thus I couldn't win last two weeks I didn't appear on the list of winners because of my absence but guess what last week welcome back blessed me with???
On the hive engagement league, I was fortunate to be among the top 5, I was the 4th on the list of the top 100 engagers of the hive blockchain and on the hive naija weekend hangout, I took the first position and was rewarded excellently for the good job well done, alongside me was my co winners, 
...
In summary, I was happy with my performance last week because I never expected to be amongst the winners last week because of some offline challenges I was battling, it made me less active but I was active from Friday to Sunday and I guess that was what boosted my engagement record to the top 5 spot...
In conclusion, I am happy to be back on the blockchain and today is indeed a new week for me to start chasing the top 5 spot again but this time I have my health as my first priority and i don't joke with it because health is wealth...
I look forward to what this week has to offer, my happiness made me talk about my beautiful 😍 past week achievements and I am really grateful to the hive engagement league 
I wish you all a very beautiful and lovely week ahead see you soon, thanks for all that you do, we are all grateful for everything...
