I sat down and started tracking all of my time. Specifically anything productive in my day.

I set goals and went from depressed / burnt out barely breaking 14hrs a week to over 50 now.

Progress is slow, it feels like I'm behind my peers both in terms of skill and $$ but progress feels okay for now.

I'm nearing my 30s and it sucks but progress is all you can work towards - understanding what you really want is important.

I realized I wanted nothing to do with the "game" being played by my friends in New York so I left, got over it and I'm much happier now.
