To me, a life's work is most interestingly spent in three areas. The first is cryptocurrency and critically the application of it to the betterment of society. The second is energy, particularly fusion and solar technologies. It is hard to overstate how much good that could do in the world. The last one is space. The intrepid exploration of our place in the universe and the pace at which that is currently evolving today is invigorating. Right now I'm focused on the first one but the other two are super tempting!
