You have to get a project. What did it for me is I just jumped in 100% and decided to do a major new project in xPages. Just like you - I've got a wife, 3 kids, house..., and way to much work to do. There was no way I was going to learn xPages in my free time - because there is no such thing.
The first few weeks I was REALLY doubting my decision. But it's been a few months now - and I can't imagine going back.
