   * **Develop an "energy conservation" program** – Re-define "necessary" and sort out the really important activities from those that can wait. MP patients should pace themselves through the day, saving necessary activities for the time of day when they tend to have more energy. Forego jobs that need not be done every day, such as making beds.    * **Develop an "energy conservation" program** – Re-define "necessary" and sort out the really important activities from those that can wait.
