I feel your pain, I'm not a founder, but I also work in tech as a developer and sometimes wonder what it would be like to be a bartender or waiter. I have a friend who works as a waiter and always seems to be on vacation in some exotic part of the world. Makes me wonder how he can afford to do that and I can't?
I realised I needed to do 2 things:
1/ Figure out what you REALLY want to do.
2/ Figure out how your work life can support it. Is your work life not supporting it? Figure out what you need to change to make it get there.
For me, that meant switching jobs to something that allows remote work and unlimited vacation and organising my work day so that I can just put in 8-5 and leave work at the door.
Also, try taking an open-ended vacation. Don't make any plans, just get the time off and do what feels right.
