I agree. I think it takes a bit of time for most people to find the degree of business they can live with. During the "honeymoon" phase it's an easy trap to fall into, trying to do too much. Very similar to when some first retire, they think they will have more time, and more energy, to do more things than they really will be capable of.
There is a bit of FOMO that can take control of a person here. The good thing is one can always throttle it back a bit. You may have to take Nancy Reagan's advice and "just say no", once in a while.
Me? I play pickleball a few days a week, and golf a few days a week, both of which I would love to be able to do more of than I do, but if I get carried away, I get sore and can't do either. We play cards once a week.
And I nap a lot.
