10:42 one way around this (to not think bout perfect level of effort/ RPE) is to do an exercise for 4-6 sets for a set number of reps (ex: 5x8). That way the first few sets you're 2-4 reps shy of failure, and by the last set you're probably pushing to around RPE 9-10. That way, you're not thinking about RPE too hard but also almost always guarantees you're in the "optimal" RPE of around 8
I've been training for 35 years and uave broken a bunch of records. Do I need to train for 4 hours/day, to gain strength, because my body is so highly adapted? 😊
Last part resonated with me a lot. I am also a proud failure-loving idiot.

“Lifting stuff make myself tired”
Lifting stuff because you like getting tired sounds just emotional.
So what? Humans are emotional animals. Not everything needs to be 100% rational.
