Think of your body as a battery that only has so much charge in one day. Gauge your daily schedule accordingly. Easy for me to say and not easy to do - another way of describing pacing. Don't forget that mental and physical activities drain your battery, too.

I can’t let myself get excited—the excitement for me can cause PEM just as easily as too much physical effort.
