How do I figure out what I want to do in life?
I've been directionless for most of it. Tried my hand at a few professions, nothing really clicked.
Maybe there's some book I can read? I dunno.
Getting tired of just drifting through life as of late. I want something tangible.
Pic related is me for the past five years, except I'm 32.

As I recently commented to a similar question: Ask questions, and answer them, about everything you come across. That's a built-in homing mechanism for finding what fascinates you.

Finding one's calling is the main responsibility of a young man, which you are. You might benefit from reading What Color is Your Parachute? by Richard Bolles. It is ostensibly about job-hunting, but his advice is non-standard: basically, invent your own job.

Also, be one-pointed, of single mind, since you are still going to need to fight for your place in the world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vifg2LgF_ic
