This is good advice I think, being as programming wasn't really a passion of mine; just something I got into when I had to grow up quick, and it worked out well. Once I started and got past the imposter part of it all I went to startups, where they drained all my energy from myself and my family, just as you suggest. Now I'm somewhere that requires very little of me technically, where I can work pretty much JUST 40 hours and get by and make everyone happy. I still struggle with trying to make more out of it than I really need to. I still struggle with wanting to do something totally different, way outside of computers. I feel like I've "conquered" this already. (I know, that's really shallow).
