Overcoming Inertia
This is a law of the universe. From physics, to chemistry, to biology, the world is a balance between two states; action and rest.

“Stress is nothing more than a socially acceptable form of mental illness” Richard Carlson

“There are thousands of causes for stress, and one antidote to stress is self-expression. That’s what happens to me every day. My thoughts get off my chest, down my sleeves and onto my pad.” Garson Kanin (American Writer, Actor and Film Director, 1912-1999)
