Cruising after Offer - Good or Bad?

I am feeling exhausted (and relieved) having secured my offer recently. There are a number of transactions happening, and while I know that more deal exposure will be nothing but beneficial, I just can't seem to pull myself together. To all monkeys who have secured an offer and are now in cruising mode, how did you guys cope with this?

 

More deal experience isn't helpful if you're totally burned out by the time your new job starts. As I'm sure you know, diminishing returns kick in pretty quickly in IB once you're past the first couple.

Edit: meant to reply to OP.

 

I misunderstood the question, ignore my previous comment
