You Need Your Health to Achieve Your Goals
As a student in the university, I always wanted to have "A" grade in my results although, in some courses, I end up having "B" grade. Well for an average student, "B" is a good one.
In my 200 level at the University, I decided that I wanted to have straight A's in all my courses and I was doing 15 courses. This wasn't impossible but the examination time table made it a little difficult. In the timetable, there was a day I had 4 courses which were major courses.
As determined as I was, I started reading. I read day and night, I read to an extent that I forgot to eat. The only thing on my mind was to have an "A", I did not take a break at all. When I got to the hall, I felt feverish, I could not write anything, My head ached and I was exhausted. To cut the story short, i tried my best to do something. When the result came out, I had 2 B's and 2 C's. To be sincere, if my health wasn't against me, I would have had "A's" all through.
I wouldn’t want to become the wealthiest man on the hospital bed or in the graveyard.
In other to achieve your goal, you need your health and that's why there is a need to take a break once in a while. When you work continuously without finding time to give yourself space, you might end up becoming a successful sick person.
One good thing about giving yourself a break is you have time to rest and regain enough energy and vitality for the task ahead.
Health is wealth, Ask a president on a sick bed how well he governs.
I know you have great dreams, and plans, most of us do but however lofty your dreams may be, or how promising your ideas might be, if you break down your health, you’ll have nothing else to do. You will remain as helpless as one who has no dream, getting back on your feet healthy will become your greatest goal and achievement.
In spite of the great task ahead of you, eating a balanced diet and checking your health regularly can go a long way in keeping you alive and long enough to achieve your dreams, and goals and to see the fulfilment of all your dreams.

Thanks @ememovic, sometimes we need to rest at one point so we do not exceed our elastic limit
Thus ensuring that Robert Hooke's law of elasticity is obeyed. lol
Exactly, health is wealth. I experienced such not quit long.
Wow!! A little rest will not break you, it will only help you gain more strength
Health is wealth and very essential in actualizing your goals.
My health is my greatest asset i must tell you
Food for thought! Hope our governments and rich individuals can help put Africa in good and bearable shape so that the poor masses can at least have access to quality meals and good medical care.
