Sometimes one just doesn't have the energy to do what needs done. How do you manage it?

I find that slowing down and just meandering through the things I have to do more slowly and comfortably, actually helps when I feel burned out. Maybe with some music. Feelings of urgency/tension in my body actually sap my energy way too quickly, before I can even get started. So I focus on managing stress preemptively.

This is not applicable to everyone or every situation but it made a big difference for me.
