I think that's a pretty normal arc. You work your butt off to get through school, then when you start working, and you have limited responsibilities, you don't really ever work outside of work. As you become more senior, you will have more to do than can be done in the ~8 hours during the day, M-F and you start feeling like you need to work while you're at home or whatever.

Then when you retire, every thing falls away.

I probably won't get to retire, so, I'll never get there. I'm glad you get to experience that again.
