Simplified Meaning:

When something is under constant pressure without any break, it will eventually fail. Think about a bow used for archery; if you keep it drawn all the time without letting it relax, it will lose its shape or snap altogether. The same goes for our hearts and minds. If you're always stressed, overworked, or burdened emotionally without taking time to relax and unwind, you could experience burnout, exhaustion, or even health problems. To avoid this, it's important to balance work and rest. For example, if a student studies for exams day and night without any breaks, they might become too tired to focus or even fall sick. Similarly, someone working nonstop might start making mistakes, feel overwhelmed, and their performance will suffer. Incorporating breaks, hobbies, exercise, and social time into our routines helps maintain both physical and emotional well-being. Taking care of oneself prevents the toll of continuous stress and enhances overall effectiveness and happiness.
