As one ages, they realize that time is short, not to be wasted, rather to be used wisely to best effect.
As we age, our minds eye becomes paramount. Long ago my much older mentors urged me to use my brain to look over the horizon. For a long time I did not truly understand, now I do, I truly do. They told me that after one has lived a long period of history, they then have a solid foundation that allows them to look over the horizon, to see and understand with a clarity as never before.

My parents, and grandparents, reached that state - I hope that it comes to me soon.
Sometimes, I think that I'm getting there, on some subjects, and then on other day to day stuff, I regress.
It probably depends on how many 'irons in the fire' one has to handle on a day to day basis.
Right now, my little fingers are toasty in a few areas...but that's fine. It let's me know that I'm still alive enough to feel the fire.
