Hi @TheNewMe2.0
1st of all I had a look at your profile and I noticed you mention Goku and you find him as being your inspirational fictional character.
From the Dragon Ball world, mine is Vegeta, for whatever reason I find myself relating more with Vegeta than any other character, but Goku is the goat, we all know it :D
Congratulations on being an active member on this forum and for replying to other posts and helping people out, this shows that you've been on a constant improving version of youself, so congratulations for that , especially for being 4 years off of games :) !!
I'm going trough something similar like you mentioned above, maybe the main reason why we lack motivation and fall out on different areas is caused by a burnout that we can't acknowledge/recognize yet.
I booked a week in a city in a mountain region to have a whole week holiday in order to disconnect from work and the daily hustles.
Try a vaccation, go into a specific place , recharge your batteries, and I am sure you'll get the right energy to figh off your negative feelings
Yesterday I felt like shit, i did not had any drive whatsoever, but just because I booked an entire week in a mountain region where I can go hiking, eat at a good traditional restaurant etc etc, it gave me the right push I needed.
Today i'm full of energy and drive, I just finished all of my tickets at work (I work in IT) and I took a cigarrette break (bad habbit i know) and I'm reviewing my itinerary for the trip.
But the point is that just because I scheduled my holiday , it gave me a boost that helped me today to feel full of energy, finish my tickets at my workplace in just 2 hours and now I have nothing to do but wait for the time to pass so I can get home and read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
Keep looking for something that would help you with your sense of falling off on all my goals (financial, fitness, social etc) , maybe that would be playing football/soccer / golf etc, going on trips, drawing, painting , reading a book ,whatever helps you to relax in such a way that will boost your energy.
Maybe you're going through a burnout that you can't really put your finger on it and say "this is exactly why i'm feeling like this" and it might not be related to gaming.
Good luck and all the best 💪
