There's No Such Thing as Rest

What is energy? Science tells us it can neither be created nor destroyed, only transformed. It's perpetual motion, constantly shifting between forms. Yet, somehow, we live with this illusion of rest, of stillness, as if energy can press pause. Every day, no matter what I do—whether I hike a mountain, secure cloud applications, or binge-watch movies on the couch—I end up tired. So what does "rest" even mean?

As I’ve been building my routine, grinding Monday through Friday, doing the things that suck to sharpen my resolve, I look forward to the weekends. Days off become this beacon of hope, a chance to ease up and fall off the gas. But here's the kicker: even after all that "rest," I'm still tired. The kind of tired that no nap or lazy day seems to cure. So, where is my energy going? Why doesn’t "resting" actually feel restful?

Energy Doesn’t Sleep

Energy doesn’t get to rest. It doesn’t tap out. Science says so, and my spirit agrees—especially on those unfulfilling rest days when I let the hours slip away. Sure, my brain and ego might tell me to chill: Take it easy, you’ve earned it. But deep down, there's this gnawing sense of unease. I’ve realized that even when I think I’m resting, my energy is still moving—it’s just spinning its wheels, wasted, without direction.

It’s a weird kind of sabotage, really. The couch calls to me, the edible kicks in, and before I know it, I’m marinating in guilt. Not because I didn’t “earn” the break, but because I didn’t own the break. My energy wasn’t at peace; it was stuck in a loop, building up resentment for the hours I let escape.

Redefining Rest

Here’s the truth: I tricked myself. I convinced myself that rest was the absence of effort. That doing nothing was the goal. But energy doesn’t work like that. It craves movement, expression, direction. Rest isn’t about sitting idle—it’s about shifting gears.

Think about it: even on a day off, your heart doesn’t stop beating. Your breath doesn’t stop flowing. Energy keeps moving, so why shouldn’t we? That doesn’t mean you need to floor it every day. But taking your foot off the gas entirely? That’s where the imbalance lies.

The magic happens when we stop treating rest as an escape and start treating it as an opportunity. A day off isn’t about doing nothing. It’s about doing what fulfills you. It’s about redirecting your energy into something that feeds your soul, sparks your curiosity, or simply brings you peace.

Rest with Purpose

Rest can be active. It can be deliberate. It can be a walk with no destination, cooking a meal just for you, journaling thoughts you’ve ignored all week, or learning something new. It’s not about productivity for the sake of output; it’s about aligning your energy with what matters most to you.

So maybe rest does exist—it just needed to be redefined. A day off isn’t a time to waste energy; it’s a time to reclaim it. To move it in ways that serve you, not drain you. Whether that’s dedicating an hour to a passion project, or simply savoring a quiet moment with intention, the point is to make it count.

Energy isn’t something to fight against or let dissipate. It’s a gift. And the more we respect it, the more it respects us in return.

Inertia

Newton’s First Law: The Law of Inertia

Inertia: The resistance to change motion.

- Affected By: Mass and ONLY mass. A the heavier object will ALWAYS have more inertia than a lighter object. 

- Type of Quantity: Scalar

So....

- Mass is directly proportional to inertia (the less mass an object has, the less inertia it has).

- The more inertia an object has, the more difficult it is to stop the object or change it’s direction.

- Mass is the measure of an object’s inertia (in kg).

- Inertia is NOT a force. 

- An object in motion will stay in motion IN A STRAIGHT LINE WITH CONSTANT VELOCITY unless acted on by another force. An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by another force. 

You can easily slide a book on the floor because it has little mass so it has little inertia so it doesn’t resistant motion very much. You can’t easily push a car across the floor because it has a large mass so it has large inertia and resists the change in motion more. 

If you have a 5 kg object moving at 60 m/s and a 13 kg object at rest, the 13 kg object has more inertia. It is more difficult for you to get the 13 kg object to start moving than it is for you to change the speed or direction of the 5 kg object. 

If any question regards inertia in any way, only look at the mass.
