Grind culture is really just trying to approximate genius with sheer volume of effort, but I've found in most areas of my life I achieve better results if I slow down, take my time, get some rest, and act with more conscientious and deliberate motions. This is difficult for a productive person, because it can feel like being lazy, but quality output is a complicated mechanism that requires more than just effort. I probably only write two to three times a week, and only when I feel like it, but I tend to keep more of what I write because it's more planned and deliberate, and thus write "faster" than I did when I stuck to a rigorous schedule. Same with exercise. I was forced to slow down after I had a child, and was no longer busting my ass 5-6x a week in the gym and hitting the stairmaster for hours. I dropped down to 3x a week in the gym, stopped turning the weights into a cardio session, and stuck to small sessions of Zone 2 cardio or walking. As a result I noticed my muscles actually grew faster, I leaned out more, and I was less puffy, inflamed, and hungry from the lack of rest.
