Exhaustion is shaped by what you're doing, and by the pace at which you're doing it.
Moving quickly, responding constantly, switching tasks, treating every request as urgent: all of it adds strain, even to a workload that would otherwise be manageable.
Run this pace check:
Where am I rushing because the situation genuinely requires it? Where am I rushing out of habit? Where could I move more steadily without causing harm or delay?
You may not control every demand. You can likely reduce unnecessary urgency in at least one part of your day.
Right now, what's hitting you harder: the workload or the pace?
Comment WORKLOAD, PACE, or BOTH.
