Whenever we are encouraging others or even cheering ourselves up, often times we would say “add oil” (aka hang in there or keep it up), or all sorts of inspirational messages. Yet, persistent effort might not be applicable at all times, for when we are beyond exhausted or barely pushing through, we do have the option to go on a hiatus, take a break, collect our thoughts, then pick up from where we left off. It's all right, we all ought to take good care of ourselves.
