Rest More vs Push On (Cairn) – Stamina Decisions

TL;DR

Resting is not wasted time. Pushing is not always brave. The key is red‑zone cost.

Decision tree (3 questions)

1. Are you in the red zone?
2. Is the next section high‑consequence?
3. Have you failed twice in the same segment?

If “yes” → rest.

Common failure modes

• No rest → repeated failures → frustration
• Over rest → slow progress, wasted stamina

One‑click actions
