How do I figure out what I should do in life?

I'm 25, I have a math degree from a good university, and I currently teach at an international school.

I thought I would go back to university to do a PhD but honestly I'm not sure I have enough interest or drive to really spend 4 years studying some problem that no one really cares about anyway.

I keep having dreams that I want to be a composer, or a pilot, but both seem unrealistic goals for the future.

I just get bored very easily, and I know work isn't supposed to be all fun and games, but I don't feel stimulated right now.

Also I'm an introvert and just want a job where I can be left alone to do my thing, without meetings, talking to clients all the time, and all that other shit.

I'm not motivated by money so much, I don't spend what I earn already and that's not due to concious saving efforts, I just can't spend it all.

Literally me. I went self employed, earn shit money but no commute no bullshit.

Other than that you need to go for something that interests you as the only priority. What do you choose to do with your spare time?

In my spare time I learn the local language, play piano and try to make music (badly)

I also go to the gym in the mornings

Become an officer in the military. Not Army or Marines. Become an officer in the Navy. It's kind of the opposite of what you want, but what you crave, I think it's there.

I was enlisted and there is an incredible lack of real leadership. You sound like a bored, but highly intelligent person that would be perfect. You have your degree, you're not an idiot, you would have respect. You'd be a proper gentleman.

Poor guy, your life sounds horrible.

Seriously tho, if you want to be left alone, ask for that instead of a raise or a promotion, next time hr comes knocking.
