I would love to go to a 32 hour work week, but not for the obvious reason. I would still put in 50 hours but it would give me more of an edge over everyone else. I don't feel like I'm in direct competition with my peers, but I always hold myself to a sometimes unreasonable standard for what I "feel I should be getting done," and I use those around me as a ruler. I always just want to be better, and especially faster, but without losing the clean thought process. For as long as I have been doing things slightly outside my comfort zone, so always, I only get there with more time. Am I totally alone or does this resonate?
