On the whole, there will come a time when one would like to do something else before checking out. There's a balance between doing good work and enjoying life - I recommend trying to do both while the all the pieces work well. Keep in mind that deferring things to a future time is a risk in that the future time might never arrive, or it might arrive in a way you can't use.
