So what you are saying is that, just like me, in your 20s you were optimize for getting shit done and now, being older, you optimize for feeling good and don't care about doing as much and think that optimizing for doing earlier was a mistake for you. This is reasonable!

No. I am able to do much more now, now that I respect the signals my body is sending. Sometimes I have to force things, reality demands it, but generally I work with my body on any given day, not against it. The increase quality and amount of work is undeniable, generally and on average.

I can only imagine how much more capable I would be if I had had a better relationship with sleep and my body in general when I was younger, so the benefits of those behaviors could have compounded over a longer time frame.
