It is both terrifying and comical at the same time.

This made it click for me about why the most productive times I have are also the busiest ones. I thought it was due to "inertia". That is, if you don't stop rolling, it'll be easier to roll. This theory has been contradicted by the fact that it still really is quite easy to stop rolling very shortly after busy times pass.

I had noticed this effect before, but only now after reading about it I'm completely aware of it. I wonder how that came to be part of the human psychology.

This is a very common idea, and also potentially somewhat dangerous. A lot of people chase the inertia with ever increasing workloads and burn out. I have come close to that multiple times.
