You should like the Final Fantasy games then.
I also loved "Sekiro: Shadows die twice" and "Ghost of Tsushima" even though the latter is developed by an American studio.
Both are gorgeous games.

My next game will be FFXVI or Tales of Berseria (I discovered the Tales of series just last year and it's already one of my favorites).

In short, God. I am quite happy to expand on this but it will be nonsense to those who don't share a belief in an almighty creator who is personal and interactive.
So, like you, I draw inspiration from writings, but most of them are found in the Bible. Aside from that, yes, famous speeches from literary works before a great battle/self sacrifice, and poems, or snippets of poems and songs: Back in Black, Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night, The Hand that Rocks the Cradle (specific to mothers), Move (TobyMac), Shake it Off, The Filling Station (Elizabeth Bishop) ...

Your answer evokes two poems, the first "Miles to go before I sleep" by Robert Frost, and "The road goes ever on" by JRR Tolkien.

Small victories (as some have already said).
Look for the "easy wins" or the "low hanging fruit". Chalk up a couple wins and it will get your head back in the game...

But
I wanted to split the "a" and "t" to make it a little more... interesting
