high net worth and zero motivation

I think here would be the most appropriate place to post my question since I suspect some people might relate to the same situation.

But to make it short; I’ve had a lucky run: good tech job + some well-timed investments

Now the weird part—I’ve lost my ambition. Work feels pointless, side-projects stall, and I’m basically coasting. Anyone here hit this wall and found a way to reignite purpose? Looking for practical tips, mindset shifts, or even book recs.

Take up a hobby. One that involves progression and improvement is ideal. A musical instrument is an obvious choice, but a sport could also scratch the itch.

The dopamine hit of, “I couldn’t do this at all ten days ago, but now I’m killing it,” is hard to beat.

I’m right there with you: I burnt myself out building a startup, slowed down for a bit and realized that I don’t really have to work anymore, so moved to a Mexican beach town to retire early. At first, it was a real internal battle to be so unproductive, then I got used to it and relaxed, then got bored, now I feel like I’ve healed from the stress and am ready to try new things again so am moving to Spain to go back to college (I think).

I’d recommend reading “Meditations for Mortals” by Oliver Burkeman. It convinced me that all of the side projects and ideas I wasn’t executing to didn’t really matter – we’re all going to die with unfinished stuff – enjoy your life and don’t ever feel guilty about doing so.
