It seems you may need a break or a change of pace. You are only done if you decide you are done but if thats your decision it is likely that you’d go back on it in a while. Are you in a financial position to take a break, a ‘lesser’ role or work P/T? Do you feel bored with it all? Maybe you need to concentrate on something else to give your brain a break and a resolution would emerge naturally. I burned out a few times and it all came back eventually but am now careful not to go overboard again so I take it easy with work while having a better life outside of work. I also have a family and a 3 year old now so priorities changed as well. Whatever you do take it easy on yourself Things are changing so fast that it’s likely for all of us to go through trying times but no, we’re not done at 40 or even 50. We just don’t have endless energy and time as we had when we were 20, and different priorities too, that’s for sure. Cheers
