I sleep about 6 hours a day, I work about 9 hours a day, and the rest is for life sustaining activities, housework, personal projects, and leisure.
Work is where I spend most of my time. Being a positive force in the world is important to me, so I only work on important problems, and to defend against falling into a motivated reasoning culture, I only work places where people can freely discuss ethical issues. I don't want to trick myself into thinking I'm connecting the world, but then discover I'm actually building tools that facilitate genocides in Myanmar or ethnic cleansing of the Uighurs or something.
So no, at least for me, attempting to compartmentalize my life like that seems like a really bad life strategy. I just don't want to regret how I spend a major part of my life.
