Mm-hmm.
The over-indexing on efficient and comfortable and frictionless is exhausting because what actually gives us energy is aliveness, vitality, curiosity, exploration, playfulness, discovery.
Those verbs are what makes us feel alive and up and energized.
If you deplete yourself from that and all you do is a checklist, an administrative chore, you will be exhausted.

Good luck.
