Say your sitting in the woods by a fire with a small stack of wood. When the fire starts getting low, you have two options, throw on more wood or go out and get more fire wood. You can throw on more wood but if you run out of wood in the middle of the night you might end up in a seriously bad situation. It could be wet or freezing cold, you could get lost or trip and hurt yourself. So you know it’s better to go and get more firewood now, if you are able to. This is what your body is telling you “Hey if you can go get more wood now, that would be great. If not then that’s also fine I have some but I was saving it for later and I’m going to bitch and moan about you making me use it”
