I assume you're living in a city. You're already renting out a lot of things to others (security, electricity, water, food, shelter, transportation), what is different with white collar work?
My apartment has been here for years and will be here for many more. I don't love paying rent on it but it certainly does get maintained without my having to do anything. And the rest of the infrastructure of my life is similarly banal. I ride Muni, eat food from Trader Joe's, and so on. These things are not going away and they don't require me to rewire my brain constantly in order to make use of them. The city infrastructure isn't stealing my ability to do my work, it just fills in some gaps that genuinely cannot be filled when working alone and I can trust it to keep doing that basically forever.
