Relax, don’t hurry. You let go of craving - letting go of craving is also part of meditation.
Right effort is perseverance, moment to moment, not hard effort. Patience and perseverance; don’t give up – gently, gently, not forcing or using a lot of energy.
You don’t do too much in meditation – just using mental energy to be present.
