I’ve successfully used two methods to defeat this.
If you get a burst of energy at the most useless time, use it to remove obstacles you might face tomorrow. Prepare your outfit for the next day. Prepare your meal. Load the dishwasher, or clean your coffee cup before you need it if you’re a pig like me.
Force yourself to do a long task (cleaning, gardening) for 30 minutes, then allow yourself to stop. It’s not as daunting as having to complete the entire task in one go, but it’s enough to probably pick up the momentum and compelte the entire thing. And if it doesn’t work, you’ll still be 30 minutes ahead.

I heavily rely off of the first one. the less I have to do when I’m out of it, the less overwhelmed I will be.
I love the mindset in the second point
