>Promotion to a higher grade only increased my workload and responsibilities to an absurd degree, I am currently doing the work of 3 people.

I've been meaning to reply to this thread for a couple days, but hadn't fully read the op. This was the exact thing I was going to comment on.

Self-improvement usually means making yourself more useful, e.g. developing skills. The more useful you are, the more you will be used by others in most cases. I think self-fulfillment comes from being able to use your skills on your own terms.

Because of both personal reasons and yet-undiagnosed paranoia (which is personal too, I guess), I won't provide answers but, instead, words of "encouragement":

>I will travel around the world and live the sustainable, successful NEET lifestyle.

It doesn't happen often but, I, kind of, understand the feeling. I really wish you manage to live the "lazy" life, that in itself is a great achievement. Maybe, if you're interested in the topic, you could read a little on the lives of both Bolaño and Cioran, the former because, for a while, he survived solely because of his talent by constantly winning (small) prizes, though, like that, he didn't live particularly well. The latter because he considered his greatest achievement to do "nothing"*.

* "You know, I’ve written very little, I never assumed it as a profession. I’m not a writer. I write these little books, that’s nothing at all, it’s not an oeuvre. I haven’t done anything in my life. I only practiced a trade for a year, I was a high-school teacher in Romania. But since, I’ve never practiced a trade. I lived just like that, like a sort of student and such. And that, I consider the greatest success of my life. My life hasn’t been a failure because I succeeded in doing nothing." http://www.itinerariesofahummingbird.com/e-m-cioran.html
