Spending time with family, helping others, or just doing anything I really enjoy.
I came to a similar realization about 5 years ago. I was very much a work all the time, climb climb guy. It only took a series of panic attacks and subsequent health anxiety to change all of that. I realized if I'd died nobody would really even remember me or my works, and all my savings (not rich, btw) were for naught.
Luckily, the panic/anxiety subsided, but the self reflection lessons did not. I find myself being a lot more selfless - giving time, effort, or money to people who deserve it, and work way, way less. I'm happy, but I'll never be rich and definitely won't be retiring early.
