The engine can keep going, 24/7... 365 days. Its a matter of encouraging people to move, construction to continue, and an environment that encourages businesses to grow, invest, and not go under water. Might it slow down, sure, but the engine can still continue to go. Texas is like a Diesel Engine. Those things last, but you have to properly maintain it, and not do anything that would damage the engine, which can all be avoided with proper care and wise planning and foresight.
