I am convinced this business has some insane physical and mental side effects. Aside from the fluctuating hours, most I know are mentally fatigued from the stress, paranoia, and social quirks of the job.
That being said, it still beats most other career paths.
My advice is to get on a normal schedule, do the work you are most effective at, outsource the rest, and fill the rest of your life with things that are enjoyable and meaningful.
I push myself to work far too hard sometimes, when I should really just work smart and delegate some tasks.
