Have you tried taking risks in life? Sounds like you enjoy being left to your own devices, so why not try solo travel in a remote region? South America and places in Southeast Asia can be really fun to do alone.
You might even end up in situations which will untangle you from work or as you call it "the perfect job", and I can say from experience it is extremely liberating.
And you will meet a lot of people along the way, too.
This sounds like the perfect solution for you also as you said you work from home.

Sounds like the risky solo intercontinental travel portion of this guy's life has elapsed. Doing this when you're single and 25 is adventurous. Doing this when you're married with kids and a homeowner is a midlife crisis, even if being 35 makes it an early one. Leaving the responsibility of raising the children and running the household to his wife while he goes on adventures to sate his restlessness would be pretty self-absorbed.
I can't delete my comment anymore but you are correct, I made a mistake. I never finished reading the first sentence and assumed the person was living alone.
