Are you saying that anyone with the drive to accomplish great things in life is, by definition, destined to end up a menatally disturbed recluse like Howard Hughes?
What about all of the people who have drive to accomplish great things, and even those who do live life to it's fullest by persuing pleasures of all sorts who also derive great satisfaction and contentment from that life?
I mean, you don't even know if Hughes' insanity had anything at all to do with his "accomplishments". It is quite likely that he would have gone crazy regardless of his wealth or fame.

Life is not about accomplishing things.
It is certainy part of what life is about, and a pretty substantial part for most.
Otherwise, don't you just become a slovenly bum?
