I just don’t feel anything. I do have a certain logical appreciation that if I made a billion dollar company it would be impressive, I’d probably improve people’s lives with it, and I could buy more stuff (mostly donate I guess? I don’t have much else I need...) but I don’t feel anything. Those are the words I feel flowing through my head but I don’t feel any of the wordless feelings that make up my system 1.
Hell, I don’t even feel anything thinking about the pleasure I’d get from getting a peach from my kitchen and there’s a 95% chance the peach is good and ripe today. I just do it because I know I’ll have good feels once I actually have the peach. Which is enough to make me do something low effort like get a peach but not start a company.
Edit: If anyone was curious, the peach was indeed delicious
I am not an expert, but this sounds to me like depression. Maybe there is a pill for that?
Or maybe peer pressure if you could find the right group of peers which would push you in the direction you want to go anyway. (I wonder if you could rent such group. Maybe this is a business opportunity.)

Ah, I see.
