Sincerely, not everybody needs to be a developer. The fun part of HN is there are very bright people here that - by chance - are developers.
You should be developing all kind skills (soft skills) that will last for life, not something linked to any technology that will be obsolete in 5-10 years.
This needs time; but since you have no kids and no job you are rich in that.
There is a lot of iliteracy in this areas. Maybe your road is here:
* Communication (how to send a message to different audiences)
* Numbers (spreadsheets, budgets, business plans, etc.)
* Automation (home automation, business process automation).
