Sometimes people overdo things. Maybe it’s over-preparing a presentation, or spending a week on a really easy homework assignment. Most of the time, it’s not harmful. Although many people aren’t willing to over do something and would rather favor some sleep. Sleep is known as a great cure, a cure for difficulties, lack of energy. But it’s actually more harmful to oversleep than it is to over achieve. Although many people would complain that overachieving is just a waste of time, and staying in bed would better spend the time, oversleeping can cause many health effects, statistics have shown that people who sleep more than the recommended amount can increase the risk of diabetes, strokes and death. Yet it’s also important to balence the amount of sleep you get with the work done, people who over achieve might find themselves staying until two in the morning, trying to polish up their shining presentation. When we just continue to drive ourselves, our work fall behind, as well as a higher chance of obesity, heart disease and high blood pressures. People who were originally doing amazing might find themselves falling back, even after staying up that late, because they were staying up that late. It’s important to balance your sleep with the appropriate amount of sleep for your age.
