The hardest thing to learn about being a manager is that you can't measure your productivity the same way anymore. You aren't working tickets, or as many as you used to. You can't count lines of code or features completed. At the end of a long hard day, you're just as tired but you didn't do very much (or maybe any) of what you used to consider work.
You have to find new ways of justifying your existence TO YOURSELF. You need to consider the value in decisions and relationships, processes and long term goals. It's a very hard shift to make but can be very rewarding.
Good luck.
