I’m just going to leave it up to Hashem. I’m going to give Hashem the list of everything I need to do, and say, ‘Hashem, you’re in charge of giving me all the koach, physical, mental and emotional.” With that, he woke up the next morning without being worried what would be, and it turned out that he was able to do everything with even more koach than he usually has after a full night’s sleep, and he accomplished everything quicker, faster, and easier!
