Absolutely not. You should do what you enjoy. I was facing a similar problem, where I started playing games again after few years of grinding and it was hard for my mind to accept that I can “slack-off” and do something else than work. Took me a whole month of not working and just enjoying stuff to rewire my brain to that healthy relationship you describe. I don’t believe retiring early is necessary, but this lifestyle definitely requires a on-your-own-time job.

It's strange. On one level, I've reached a degree of mastery with computing and leadership, so should I use this knowledge? Or... what if I just started painting. I answered the question of what I would paint. I'd focus and paint dragons versus solo man in every day tasks. In some form, a form of solo therapy dealing with the internal hero journey that I have been on with my career. The key mistake that I feel I have made is focusing on goals... the slaying of the dragon. But, what happens when you slay the dragon? find a bigger dragon? Keep going? I've been haunted by the David Chou JRE ( https://youtu.be/j7T6__UbhBI?t=11323 https://youtu.be/j7T6__UbhBI?t=11323 ) in relation to Anthony Bourdain.
