Lot of good comments already, but then different personalities respond to different things so suggesting another approach. Stop thinking about success or career or even your happiness, instead invest in "fulfilment" of your life. That could mean different thing to different people, but I recommend doing something for someone else - no expectations, no desire for recognition, no desire for any returns! just do it! Take it as a challenge! Just one simple thing, with nothing in it for you! That might mean help a student with class/project/direction, or help an elderly in tech support, or help no-name mom-pop store with their tech support. Essentially, find something or someone local and help them with whatever you know. Don't overdo it, don't go completely out of your way, don't analyze what and how of it. Just do whatever you can in a manageable way.If you go that far and feel satisfied, then start looking for more engagement and what else you can do, but this time with more involvement. If it sounds cliched or bookish, don't bother about it and try other suggestions. Key is to find what clicks with your personality and not necessarily what world's view is about life.
