My hope is that one day I'll be reincarnated and the new me will produce 1/1000 of the output of Fabrice Bellard. Whenever I see new posts from him I just think "How can he do so much?"

As a direct refutation to what you're saying, I feel similarly about Jeff Dean at Google. His productivity is pretty legendary, and all of the stuff I know that he's done is private/proprietary (and very profitable) to Google.
