‎What you describe is natural, for the Prophet ﷺ‎ said every deed has a time of zeal and every zeal has a lull, and whoever’s lull is upon the Sunnah is guided (graded ṣaḥīḥ by al-Albānī raḥimahullāh). Take it as a rule: consistency beats intensity, so fix a daily amount you can keep and take a real break every day, as the Prophet ﷺ‎ told Ḥanẓalah, a time for this and a time for that (Muslim).
