I don't know about you, but I grew up believing that if you had a job, you had people relying on you. No matter what, you couldn't let them down. So I would push through all kinds of sicknesses and injuries, because there was a job to be done and it was my obligation to be there... No matter what. Sound familiar? Today, I saw the impact that belief still has on me today, and recognized the unworkability of ignoring a request from our bodies.
