What do I want to do?

Gina Trapani's advice:

Not knowing what you want to do is a scary place everyone's been in at one time or another. Working toward a particular thing gives you purpose, and when you don't have that, it can feel like you're drifting, directionless, while the rest of the world is speeding by. When you're in this place, try to minimize the insecurity about not knowing what you want. Take comfort in the fact that many people are speeding toward a place they don't really care about because they didn't fully think it through. Commit to taking the time to find the right direction for you.

I fully agree and same with her, I live my life with my task list, project list and life list. I use Omnifocus but Gina’s todo.txt apps is also highly recommended. Important thing is you have one system that you can trust and you can rely on.
