A lot of fitness rules out there will have you believe that your workouts are only effective if you cross some sort of an imaginary finish line.
Do an hour of cardio
Do X-number of exercises per muscle group
Always do X-number of sets and reps.
Eat at least X number of calories, protein, etc.
This finish line can be a good guideline, but it can hold you back if you can, and need to do more to achieve your objectives. It can also force you to work beyond your means when time, energy, focus, and other resources are in short supply.
That’s why auto-regulation can help you overcome the illusion of an imaginary finish line so you always do enough, but never too much.
