Agree with a lot of what you're saying. However, what I find in reality is that people are kind of trapped (or at least feel this way). I had written about this recently. The tl;dr is that mid-career professionals are struggling in India to find that job which will allow them this space even if they chose to prioritize correctly.
This is valuable insight. I often say overachievers are like a magnet for work. The best players are asked to make more plays. I like the idea of color coding meetings. I also regularly block my schedule to reserve time for things that bring me joy and to recharge. Hard work is still exhausting, but living a life with fulfillment and joy is hard work!
