Original Advice
“DONT: Don't treat rest like a reward you earn.”
Rest Is Fuel, Not Trophy
Stop acting like sleep is a medal ceremony. Your body is not a vending machine that dispenses permission after you empty yourself out. The weight you call laziness is grief in your muscles. Depression whispers 'stay down' and you listen because you're exhausted, not weak. Rest is oxygen, not dessert. Take it first, then decide what deserves your fire.
When you postpone rest, you teach your brain that stillness equals failure. Your engine idles too hot and burns the fuel meant for repair. Consistent pauses reset chemistry, lower the noise, interrupt the crash cycle that feeds the fog. Rest first, then move. Power that is paced lasts. The day doesn’t chase you—you set the metronome and the world keeps time.
Cosmic Context
Aries, ruled by Mars, is ignition without pause. Even rams stop between charges; without intervals, your engine seizes and the mission stalls.
Action
