Still feeling tired and demotivated

Made some money and quit my job when I was about to be promoted to a senior role. TC when quitting was 70 lpa (fixed + variable) + small esops. Had multiple emis (home - 70k + car - 50k). Monthly expenses ~3 lpa including emis.

Cleared all the loans + invested some in FD which is giving ~2 lakhs per month in passive income.

Now how do I find motivation to do more. Never want to retire at all. I'm still carrying over my work pressure mindset aka no mindspace for creating thinking or doing something new

You're in such a good spot to start a new startup, most people dream about it tbh.

First, take a small vacation. Do not think about work, get your head clear first.

Then try and find something you're extremely passionate about + have good level of expertise in. Find the laziest and easiest ways of making money, and do it. Even if it's trading/whitelabeling to start with. Even if it's partnering up with friends or family in their ventures.

Start small, start with something. Try a few things out, that itself will take 2-3 years easily if not more. See how it goes.
