Newton's First Law (also known as the Law of Inertia) states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest and that an object in uniform motion tends to stay in uniform motion unless acted upon by a net external force. (from Wikipedia)

A ball resting on the ground will stay where it is until, say, someone kicks it.

If the ball is kicked, it will not stop or change its motion unless an outside force (Like friction against the ground, gravitational pull by the earth) stops it or slows it down.
