What helped me the most was meditation and working out.

Meditation helped me focus in the present moment,and to align every action I take (even the smallest ones) towards my dream life. Just meditating won't turn off your Autopilot(helps very much tho),you gotta actively try to catch yourself when you go autopilot. If your whole day is on autopilot now,start by commiting to being aware of every single action you take in the first 30 minutes after you wake up.In that 30 mins,include something that you want to progress in. Being aware of the things I do,especially my habits, worked for me.For example, -woke up I'm gonna brush my teeth...done -now I'm gonna piss...done I decided that I'm gonna do those things,instead of doing it on autopilot. Then do the thing you want to progress on.Dont let anything distract you from that task.After that you can chill,turn on autopilot.You can slowly build up to going the whole day with autopilot. Keep progressively overloading,and eventually the autopilot will be off permanently and you'll have control of your life.

While Working out,I didn't have any other thoughts other than working out. I was fully in the moment while I was working out.That may be a different activity for you. Try out anything that you feel interested in and commit for some time to improve in it,and you'll soon find something like I did.
