I highly disagree. Living life on auto pilot seem to be default. Its all over our biology on every level because 'mindfulness' takes a lot of scarce energy.

Yet people run marathons, body build, invest themselves into work using an unbelievable amount of scarce energy.

Minimizing energy expenditure is called laziness for a reason.

You will learn the pain of discipline, or the pain of regret, as I've heard it said.

Minimizing energy expenditure is called efficiency.
