I quit my job for a new one and now need to claw my way back to as good as the job I quit

Long story short. I didn't know how good I had it. The pay, WLB, everything. I quit for something more prestigious. It was horrible, so I quit that job and took a hiatus to reflect on what I wanted. Now I am jobless. I could have been living the high life, relaxed. I chose to complicate my life. I wish I could go back and get my old job, but that ship has sailed. Now I need to claw my way back to the same job I had 3 years ago, that I clawed my way out of! I don't think I will ever find a job like that again. I could have retired early. Such is life. This is the other side of the grass is always greener.
