Leila Hormozi works 14-hour days and got pushback for it. She tried cutting back and felt worse. If work energizes you more than Netflix or movies, why stop? Personal fulfillment matters more than what society says you should do.
I tell people, I'm like, yeah, I work like 14 hours a day. People are like, that's insane. Like, you must have terrible deficits in the rest of your life and you must be absolutely unhappy and mentally unhealthy. Like, for a brief period of time, I literally was like, maybe they're right. I started putting more boundaries at work and trying to work less and doing that whole thing. And you know what's funny is I came to realize, I was like, if I'm energized by work, then why should I fucking do less of that? To go do what? Watch Netflix? Go to a movie with somebody? What else is going to be more fun than what I'm doing here? Nothing.
