Accepted a job offer at a tool company but feeling anxious about salary and decision

I recently accepted a job offer from a tool company for $70,000, which is a significant jump from my current salary of $53,000 in my hybrid role. I've been at my current job for a year after graduating, and while I enjoy the hybrid setup, I find the work itself quite boring. I live in Massachusetts, and the new job is only a 20-minute commute from my house, compared to my current 45-minute drive to the office once a week. However, after accepting the offer, I started to feel anxious about whether I should have negotiated for a higher salary, maybe around $80,000. My mother thinks I rushed into this decision and that the pay increase isn't substantial enough to justify the daily commute and potential burnout from the increased workload. Now I'm overwhelmed and conflicted about whether I should rescind the offer or keep looking for other opportunities. My start date is at the end of September, and I really need some advice on how to proceed.
