I feel like yours is the best description of the delusion of control many of us lived in, until we didn't.

I mean this honestly that unless you can detach in the ways people describe here, it will get worse.

Personally, I've noticed that my depth of thinking has improved since making time for contemplation. I was nervous initially about not having read everything - I was surprised and proud how people said "have you seen xyz" and I had. I'm not that person any more, but my skills as an engineer to solve complex problems has improved.
