A massive star will burn its fuel much faster. The fuel consumption is disproportionate to the mass; meaning that a small difference in mass will account for a big difference in brightness / fuel consumption. The more massive stars might have very short lives - only a few million years in some cases. "Only?" - For comparison, note that our Sun is believed to have lived about 5 billion years already.

How can stars have different absolute brightness?

Stars can have different absolute brightness due to variations in their size, temperature, and distance from Earth. Larger stars have more surface area to emit light, hotter stars emit more intense light, and stars that are closer appear brighter. These factors contribute to the variations in absolute brightness among different stars.
