That's a byproduct of modern society. I find it depressing that society, since the late 18th century [1], thinks we need to work that long.
Nonetheless, your statement is a valid one. Personally, I do my best to reduce that 1/3. Finding work that allows flexible schedules or work remotely but all that job needs to do is provide me money, which in turn gives me more freedom.
That's not to say that I don't find satisfaction in my work, it's just ancillary, and so far, not a requirement.
