Design seems different because it's often thought to be style-driven, which is very youth oriented. I don't agree with this take, I think ideas and creative thinking only get better as you get older, so I guess it depends on your understanding of what design is.
Also as you start to get a set of solutions that you know "work" the temptation is to do what is easy and churn stuff out, which gets boring and you may risk losing your passion.
Seems like the way of going up the career chain is to become a Creative Director, but then who wants to spend all day in meetings and never making anything?
I think as long as you keep your eyes open you will never lose your mojo.
