I can't speak for others and also have definitely not found what I want in life yet. But the tidbit I've found to apply in my life is that being closer to nature always feels better, even though I don't count gardening, walking, eating outside, pickernicking, baking, admiring the rain as my 'hobbies', they're just.. things.. that when I make time to do them, I start to feel more fulfilled in the longer-term.

As I say, I also have no fucking idea what I want in life. But right now what I'm aiming for is more of, and more time for, those kinda things.

Same here, I go outside. I happened to move to a great place to do that, so I try to go all in and do things outside every season. Hiking, biking, birdwatching, snowshoeing, snowboarding, paddleboarding.
